Hi,

I created a new thread as the old one is reaching its limit.

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Boymumxx · 07/11/2022 10:12

@Gemma96x oh I hope my wait it’s that long it’s hard work with him not sleepy and meltdowns. Hoping the questionnaire is enough evidence as I don’t have anything else xx

Gemma96x · 07/11/2022 10:02

Kloe13 · 07/11/2022 09:52

Gemma96x · 07/11/2022 09:50

Makes me nervous with the lack of evidence x

Gemma96x · 07/11/2022 09:50

@Gemma96x For most it is, but they must’ve decided to take their time with ours 😂 He’s currently on the ASD pathway I sent in a report from the paediatrician and a letter to say he’s on the ASD pathway waiting for his full assessment x

Morning all,

Scan date 5th August and just rang for an update. Got a helpful guy who said it’s with a case manager but didn’t know how long it had been with one since 🤷🏻‍♀️ said that some send a text or to just wait for a letter. Said we’re very much near the end now. Advised me to ring back at the end of the week if I hadn’t heard anything. Good luck everyone, it’s so nerve-wracking x

Cazxmxp13 · 07/11/2022 09:38

Gemma96x · 07/11/2022 09:35

BecLew97 · 07/11/2022 09:33

@Gemma96x Its been with the decision maker for 8 days, they’re taking ages x

8 days is a long time I thought when it's with a dm it only takes a few days keep a eye out for a text message or they might ring you even. Can I ask what you sent it thank you x

Greencouch · 07/11/2022 09:34

Does anyone know how long it takes for back payment to be paid? My DS was awarded on Thursday and i've still had no money in my account.

BecLew97 · 07/11/2022 09:33

Yeah it taken me 4 years for a diagnosis for my son but eventually we moved house so new school then his new school helped with the referral he was diagnosis at the school by a peadatric xx

Colettet · 07/11/2022 08:18

Morning everyone, scan date was 11th august, at least I assume that’s the scan date as that is the date confirmed everything was received. Anyone know what date they are working on?

claiming for son, type 1 diabetic with dyspraxia, previously entitled but missed cut off for renewal and had to start whole new claim, addition to this claim is the dyspraxia and the additional support this requires - no idea if this will alter any rates received previously when was only for T1DM?

Thanks in advance ❤️

Good luck everyone today!! Keep us updated 🤞🏼
