Good morning, I am new to this. I applied for Dla for my daughter in October 2024. Scan date 16th October 2024. I caved in and called yesterday, told that someone has been assigned to her case now. Does anyone have a rough idea or similar situation as to how long a decision takes after being told this?

Renewals are usually done pretty close to the end date.

New claims are taking up to 25 weeks but I heard back in around 18 weeks last time.

I heard back in 16 weeks about 2 months ago.

@mumtumok I think they will prioritise the processing of your son's claim if they see it expires soon. I don't think payments will continue after a claim has just expired though, if it is still awaiting a decision from the DWP. I would be pleased to be proven wrong about this, but it's probably safer to assume that payments won't continue until the claim is renewed.

Thank you lovely , so the renewals get scanned pretty much straight away ?

Show quote history

I would assume so.

mumtumok · 26/05/2025 10:25

x2boys · 26/05/2025 10:10

It should be I sent my sons off 2/3 weeks before it ran out and it was renewed five days before it ran out.

@Iwanttobreakfree2 ah thank you so much , it all confuses me and now I’ve found a letter that says it’s until the 29/07/25 so I may have got it muddled , but just in case thought I should check. So renewals gets scanned pretty much straight away I’m guessing ? And as long as they receive it before end date payments carry on till decision is made am I correct ?
