Hi cyborg
The line "medicals have been received" will happen only before "Decision Made" after which u will get your PPs back. The DD encashment is much much before. My DD was encashed on June 14th, the medicals received status in the 2nd week of October, then DM in the 3rd week of October and shortly I got my PPs.
So Mediclas have been received is the last stage very close to DM. Till then it will be In Process. And if your DD is encashed you will get a receipt for it by post, which will come by a snail mail. For some after in process status it will go to DM also.
Also you must click "In Process" to see the medical received line is included or not.
