Claim registered 5/4. Received text yesterday saying we qualify. No money yet so no idea what we've been awarded. Should get middle rate and I'll appeal if we don't. I'm guessing I'll find out by Tuesday/Wednesday next week.

That's good news! It may go into your bank before you even a letter so you might be able to work it out, you was 2 weeks ahead of me so hopefully not long now

Fingers crossed people get a text this weekend too

Mummyto3boys23 · 12/08/2023 10:58

Keep me updated if you can? We are the same dates

Mommyof42023 · 14/08/2023 10:17

scan date 25/04 still not with a case manager he said wait is now 16 and half weeks he said to call again in 10-14 days to see if it is with a case manager

Mumof2girls1234 · 14/08/2023 10:27

Scan date 25/04 and I’ve just been told to ring back if I haven’t heard anything by September! It’s such an infuriatingly long wait, I was really hoping to hear it was with a case manager since I’m pretty much at 16 weeks!

It's just always adding on 2 weeks every single time isn't it, it's highly frustrating hopefully not long

Seems like people 17th April- 21st have heard back.
Im going to call on Friday to see if any update for my son.
Hopefully they are working on 24th-28th April this week! Fingers crossed for you all

urghhh47 · 14/08/2023 11:34

we're at 15 weeks as of tomorrow. Such a long wait! Last year it's was 13 weeks for my Dd - successful for her and Ds is very similar. I'm not going to phone as i do think it's just about waiting - probably another 2 weeks!!

Emma1620 · 14/08/2023 11:56

Shellbel10 · 14/08/2023 12:03

Emma1620 · 14/08/2023 12:04

They just keep moving the deadline to when they’ll look at it back without even informing us by text or a letter, I’m going to put a complaint in today when I get through as they are saying 15 weeks by text and on the letters it’s so frustrating , good luck to you and everyone on here as well hopefully we all get the answers we need in the next few weeks x
