You can now find out if your fit note (medical certificate) has been received by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)
To do this, put your mobile number on the top right corner of your Fit note when you send it.
The DWP will send you a text when they have received it and when you can expect payment.
However, you need to wait 7 working days for your note to be received so don’t chase up before then.
