If they’ve been sitting on it for 4 months you probably already have your answer.

SD is right. If I liked you, wanted to keep you happy, and had the authority to grant you remote, there wouldn't have been any reason to wait 4 months to approve.

They are legally obliged to get back to you. Search gov uk for more detaild

SD is right. However, you can follow up to see if they have any updates and to let them know that your diary is filling up and want to give them first chance before finalising plans and accepting other work.

I lateraled into a niche practice group in Sept 2021. I also have a 1 year old and have been mostly remote since I started - but have been keeping busy tracking towards 2400-2500 hours. That said getting to know people only remote has been kind of awkward at times (email only can be tough to decipher) although as a working mom the pros vastly outweigh the cons. Yesterday my main partner asked me to come in Thursday bc he will be there and set a time to meet. Is this good/bad?? kind of nervous!
