The assessment process length can vary based on the context of your application. Here’s a quick breakdown for different types of assessments you might encounter with the council:
| Assessment Type | Timeline |
|---|---|
| Job Application Interviews | Interview invites sent within three weeks after closing date. |
| Homelessness Assessment | Scheduled once you report homelessness, typically as soon as possible. |
| Planning Application Decision | Usually up to 8 weeks after submission (13 weeks for major applications). |
For job applications, be prepared for interviews within three weeks of the closing date, while planning application decisions typically take about 8 weeks. If you're dealing with a housing situation, the assessment is set up promptly after your situation is reported.
