IB to ESA transfer question

I was wondering if anyone knew the current timescale for decisions. I sent my ESA50 beginning of February - currently on incapactiy benefit. My husband called ATOS today to see if a decision had been made and was told it was currently being looked at by a doctor. The whole process is very distressing for me and I am relapsing with my bipolar, just wondered if its likely to be weeks or months before they decide if i have to go to a medical or go straight into one of the two groups.
thanks
thanks

It took about 5 weeks for me to find out from Atos what they're decision was. Keep ringing them every week - hopefully it shouldn't be long. You'l have to wait a lot longer for anything from the DWP unfortunately.0
