Does anyone have the FULL address of where to send additional evidence? The Freepost address can’t be recorded as there’s no postcode.

I don’t have the envelope with the full address on that allows you to send more evidence as I’ve already used it! Don’t want to take my chances with the postbox again haha. Thank you

Sorry I only just spotted this you've probably already found it but just incase 🙂

Thank you!!!

I ended up sending it via the letterbox because we’re on week 13 and wanted it to reach asap. It’s only when I sent it, did I see the address on the DLA FB group🫣 I hope it’ll reach them with no issues but thank you so much anyway x

Oh, good luck I hope it reaches them in time. I sent additional information by post and took 2 weeks from sending it to getting scanned on the system 🙂. When I asked on the phone she said even if wasn't scanned on in time they will take it in to consideration and if any changes need to be made to awards then that's possible 😊

Wow really! Last time I sent information on a Friday and it had reached them and was scanned in by Tuesday!

Thank you so much for the additional information as I had no clue that was possible. I’m keeping everything crossed🤞

Ooh that’s exciting mine are 23rd/24th (two separate claims) so I assume I’ve got about 2 weeks left to wait! Can’t believe it’s already been 13 weeks since I sent the forms off, and I bet these two weeks will feel longer than those 13 did all together…

Ll333 · 22/06/2023 22:49

Thats good to know thanks my scan date 21st. Keep us updated 🤞🏽🤞🏽

Nocloudinthesky · 22/06/2023 22:49

Hey lovely. My scan date is the 9th March and feeling really anxious like you! I rang today and was told it’s also with a case manager.. hopefully not too much longer now! Good luck to you, hope you receive the outcome your hoping for 😊 xxx

NDandMe · 23/06/2023 05:18

I woke up this morning and saw back pay in my account - scan date 8 March. I can't tell what the award is from the amount, but it was more than I expected. So relieved - it will help us get him what he needs in life. Thanks very much to everyone on this thread for your support.

Mumtwo301 · 23/06/2023 09:10

I have to claims in one 9th and other 10th, got a message yesterday saying my child has been awarded🙌 I take it that’s just for one so waiting on the other! Hopefully today fingers crossed 🤞 xxx

Mumtwo301 · 23/06/2023 12:06

Anyone know how long payment comes through after text? Xxx

Piony · 23/06/2023 12:27

Congratulations @NDandMe and @Mumtwo301 .

We still have ages to go but it is really helpful to see people updating. Stops me wondering whether ours might come through soon (it won't!)

Mammy0f4 · 23/06/2023 13:47

Hi everyone. Just an update. My scan date was the 10th and i have just recieved a text to say that my child qualifies.

Mammalamma · 23/06/2023 14:14

Just called as have a scan date of 13/03. Have been told it will likely be second week of July before they decide 🤦‍♀️

Mammy0f4 · 23/06/2023 14:30

Thank you. Good luck for yours. I would give them a call with them telling you it was with a case worker yesterday.

Oh thank you 😊
I tried to call this afternoon but after waiting an hour I had to leave for the school. I think I'll ring Monday now if I don't hear anything 😊.

Mammy0f4 · 23/06/2023 16:54

I was in hold for an hour and a half. Good luck for Monday, fingers crossed for you

Thank you, I had my text on Wednesday saying my daughters been awarded how about you?

Wow congratulations 🎊. Life changing 😁
We're still waiting, it was with case manager on Thursday when I rang up still haven't heard anything. But she did say not all case managers are able to text so I'm going to ring up on Monday to see if there's any progress. 🤞🤞

ItsBritneyBitchhhh · 24/06/2023 19:39

On Monday we’ll finally be on week 14🥳 I’m not calling at all until week 15 to see what’s happening. Thank God we’re finally near the end!

DD has just had an initial assessment on Thursday and they said many factors point to Autism. I find her more challenging to care for than my DS who has a genetic disorder but have absolutely no energy to do a claim for her. Maybe in the new year!!

Fingers crossed to all those waiting🤞 our scan date is 20th of March so I hope we hear soon
