Thought I'd continue the thread as it had reached its limit.

My application will be awhile before any response but scanned 5 July and nothing yet.

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

Honestly. You've still got at least 3 weeks realistically. A lot of us are on the last stretch and been waiting 13 weeks!! It's crazy xx

We have the same date and when I spoke to them the other day he said it’s at least a 12 weeks wait atm.
Hope this helps you 🙂

Those of you who have filled in renewal forms that were sent in the post: did you use the free post envelope provided? Is there a weight limit? Is there any reason/advantage to sending it recorded post?

Lau20x · 14/09/2022 12:16

Hey guys me again. My scan date is 23rd June. I rang again yesterday the man said they were working on ones from 17/06 and the week before it was ones from 15/06. He also said it’s completely random and down to whoever’s desk it lands on and how quickly it works. He also told me don’t phone back for 2 more weeks 🤣 but if I still hadn’t heard after that to ring. It’s such a long wait isn’t it x

Girlmum25 · 14/09/2022 12:18

@Lau20x how rude to say don't call again when they give us NOTHING to go by🙃x

Ellp95 · 14/09/2022 12:21

I called earlier and was told my little boy has been awarded (either yesterday or this morning I didn’t quite catch what she said) 🥳 My scan date was 16th June!

Girlmum25 · 14/09/2022 12:22

So happy for you!

Ellp95 · 14/09/2022 12:26

Thank you! Such a relief! hopefully lots more decisions roll in this week for everyone!🤞🏼 x

Ellp95 · 14/09/2022 12:33

Does any one know how long the paperwork takes to come through once the decision has been made? X
