DVLA Provisional License Application delay?

Hi all! I’ve applied my provisional license on 1/1 and paid and filled in the form. DVLA sent me an email saying I need to wait for a month to receive a form. ‘You will receive an application completion form in the post - please allow 1 week for delivery. Please complete this form and return it to DVLA so that your driving license application can be submitted for validation checks.’
It’s the 9/1 and I still haven’t received anything from them. Should I be worried? Does anyone have the same issue? Thank you for your help!

Give them a week or two for processing. If you haven't heard back by then, call them.
