I sent my IB50 form back to DWP about a month ago but have not heard anything back and just wanted to know if anyone know how long it takes to hear something back from them?

    You would have sent your IB50 back direct to ATOS, not JCP. ATOS will contact you asap if they need to examine you.

    I have just had a response letter back following my completion of the IB50. 18 weeks I have waited, it would help if they acknowledged that they had received it.
