DLA Wait times 2022 Part 4

[MissRedd]

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.

@Lynseyb91 Id like to hope I'm lucky and it's been looked at today or tomorrow (are they open on a sat) and that if I ring on tues il have an answer but I never am that lucky lol

@Girlmum25 it's frustrating as it's not even been passed to a case maker so does that mean it still has to go to someone else for a decision. I'm so tempted to ring again today 🙈

I would just like to know as the wait is really frustrating 😂🤦🏽‍♀️

I'm stamped 14th July and on hold as would told it would be done by today. So stressful

@Mamaof41988 I'm going to ring 1st thing Tuesday aswell😂

I've been tempted to ring also today but don't wanna pee them off 😂

Just got through after hour wait, told another 4 to 5 weeks they only working on 17th of June claims, so the last person told me would be done by today wish they would be straight up!

I'm on hold 🤣 I don't care if I pee them off 😂 and if it's still a no I shall ring in Tuesday 😏👍

@Mamaof41988 you are my spirit animal 😂😂😂

It's getting so frustrating as letter says 7 weeks but then it's 12 weeks, then it's 14 weeks and then so long for a decision. So im just gonna keep ringing 😂 50 mins on hold so far

So it still hasn't been passed over but she said looking at my scan date it "should" hopefully be passed over next week 😒 so I shall phone again weds and Friday instead

🙃 next week will turn into the week after

Im ringing now want to see if they say the same thing to me 🙃😂

I’ve just called our scan date was 15th June she was awarded MRC yesterday :) I was told I’d get a text which I didn’t so keep calling ladies! Good luck 💕

@Mamaof41988 what is your scan date lovely? X

55 minutes on hold and an automated message says they can't take the call? I can't be bothered anymore lol just annoying me. Just going to wait untill I get a letter

My scan date was 14th June and we got the money today.

So hopefully they start from June 20th next week. I'm not holding my breath for an answer for another week or so 😒

Fingers and toes crossed x

Ok thank u I just wasn't sure if it even got backdated lol

I rang today again said they're working up to the 17th June still fs but it's with decision maker can be with them for 2 weeks before a decision so will b 2 weeks nxt Wednesday

Hey it goes to case manger then the decision maker in total took like nearly two weeks with ours

With the universal credit I done a change of circumstance on my journal on the 5th September.
I hadn’t heard anything by the 15th so I wrote a note on my journal to my work coach.
on the 16th she rung me to ask why I didn’t report earlier so she could hand over to the decision maker to authorise the back payment.
so worth making a note for decision maker.

@Snowpatrolling hey I've reported mine through my journal too, the decision maker said they agreed to the back payment but I've got to wait for my case manager to get back intouch about my back payment, do you know how long it takes?

How long did they take to make the decision? I’m waiting to hear still from DM. I told them 5 days ago xx

@Lynseyb91 they passed it to the decision maker last Thursday the 8th and the dm made a decision on the 12th. Now I've got to wait for case manager to get intouch regarding my payment

I don’t know, I came back on to ask of the back dated payment would go onto my next universal credit payment or if I would get it earlier!!
im new to universal so not sure of time frames.
