DLA Wait Times Part 9 (2023)

[Lostatsea10]

Thought it was time for a new thread :)

Guys thank you for this post but my wait is now over just woke up this morning with £875.90 in my account worked it out and it’s medium rate for my son! So relieved! Wishing you all a speedy decision! My scan date was 30/11/2022

I spoke to a really nice man yesterday scan date 9/1/23 told me I’m looking at end of April beginning of may I think that’s about 15 weeks. Hope u all hear soon

@Kimmarris941 i hate the stuff! Husband has tried to get to work but ended up abandoning the car

@Snickerdoodles19 i love the snow coming down but hate it 😂😂

Yes thick stuck snow daughters refused to go to school in it 🤯

@Patientlywaitingx2 both my kids schools closed today and yesterday so hopefully this snow stops and they can go back on Monday

The baby has gone to nursery she is 13 shes refused. Her school is open no matter what. It could be burnt to the ground and he would say its still open

@Patientlywaitingx2 not great for health and safety though, the head teacher clearly doesn’t give a dam about the kids or staff

Morning everyone ..has anyone ever been told their has been a decision made but can’t be told over web chat or the phone .. that you need to wait on letter arriving 🤔 we are in Scotland. I was told on web chat that a decision was made yesterday and they can’t say what decision was as was case manager that made it. Scan date 7/11/22 and my anxiety is through the roof this morning 😮 thank you 😘😘

I need some help. My scan date 28.11.22 no update I rand this morning and was told my claim in under investigation to locate form because I sent it recorded delivery they only scan the envelope not the from but I received a letter after asking for my passport I'm really confused

Still no update for me, scan date 24/11/22
i called again just now and its still with a DM, been with the DM about 8 days now and was told ill have a decision at anytime now, i really hope i haven't waited this long and be declined 😔

@Neikz so sounds like they have lost your forms?

Just rang again spoke to someone else my award was accepted only lower rate.. so the woman I spoke to I think she was half a sleep

@Kimmarris941 I don't think they always ring because I get it for my 3 sons and never had a phone call xx

@Kimmarris941 so glad ur wait is finally over, I still haven't heard anything. I'm calling again today x

Ive just rang again. Still not with a dm he said 15 weeks and im on week 12 scan date 19/12

@MommyToFive fingers crossed for you 🤞

@Patientlywaitingx2 My scan date is also 19/12 it’s starting to feel a little scary now it’s come up to 12 weeks 😩

Someone told me monday it was with a dm ans when i rang tues she said no its not haha. Unsure why they said it was

I've just called they waiting for the school to get in contact with them, I think I still have a long wait, it was 14 wks since scan date on Thursday x

It's not snowed here. Just lots of rain. I'm down in the south west. Last time we had lots of snow for around a week was 5 years ago

Has anyone else received a letter from carers saying as the award is coming to an end your carers will stop. Ds stops on 28th it’s not even with dm yet!!

I phoned today to ask if they have our forms yet as last week they didn’t have them and I’d posted them 2 weeks prior! I was so worried but they have them! Scan date 15/2 so we will be waiting a few months but I’m just so happy they have the forms. Good luck to everyone finding out soon.

Hi all last message before I leave :)

am I right in thinking because I got my payment today it will be 5th April our official first payment? Worked it as 4 weeks on Wednesday just gone xx
