@Mummytolucia oh raily! thats good to know she did say she has put a note on about the diagnosis and she did say she was putting it down as urgent not only becouse its the deadline now but because its causing my tremendous anxiety and stress as i have alot of mental health problems including anxiety disorder ☹️ hope i hear soon

I had to ring them again today as i needed to ask iff i sent actual evidence of my sons hearing loss in or iff i just told them about it at the time i sent application in as i didn't have a letter stating diagnosis, anyway i told them i now have a letter stating his diagnosis she told me to send it in and also she put a urgent message on system for it to be looked at as the 12 week deadline is up, but now i have to send this letter in im very much douting now that it will be sorted by Christmas waiting for this letter with the strikes aswell 🙁

This happened to me early in the week but by time I sent it the decision was already made to hrc lrm they said still send it as it will go on her file

mammaov3 · 16/12/2022 09:37

@Cody3 i can't understand it myself maybe you could ring them ask them why so long just for applying for mobile?

Cody3 · 16/12/2022 07:11

@mammaov3 it could be not really sure why though cause it’s just applying for the other component, since I’ve sent it in and rand yesterday the waiting time is 5 weeks longer than they told me🤦🏻‍♀️

mammaov3 · 15/12/2022 22:37

@Cody3 i believe a change of circumstances are taking 20+weeks

mammaov3 · 15/12/2022 22:19

@Cody3 it maybe that they are treating yours as a change of circumstances? due to you already in receipt of care component sorry iff i got this wrong

Cody3 · 15/12/2022 22:09

It’s so strange, people with dates after mine 16th September are being made within the next week or 2 I’ve waited 13 weeks and was told I’ll be waiting another 8-9 weeks

My scan date is the 22nd September. Phoned today for the first time and it's not even with a DM yet. However, I'm in a DLA group and I've seen people with these dates get accepted/declined today: 20th/21st/27th/30th.
They do seem to be flying through September but god knows in what order 😅

I’m in a DLA group I’ve seen same 27th and 30th September I’m 26th I rang today been told not with DM yet to ring back on 23rd

@Gemzie1993 i think people are waiting over 20 weeks for a change of circumstances

Gemzie1993 · 15/12/2022 17:40

1st week of September not December 🤦🏻‍♀️

Gemzie1993 · 15/12/2022 17:40

So worried I’m seeing people with later scan dates. My scan date was the first week of December. Phoned yesterday was told 8 more weeks at least for coc . Is that right? 🤮🙃

Lozzaaaaa · 15/12/2022 16:59

mammaov3 · 15/12/2022 16:40
