Dla wait times part 15

[Tiredmamma74]

Keeping everyone up to date with a new thread 😊

Yes I’m 15th. It’s so draining. I need to book stuff for her during sensory sessions but can’t do anything without knowing.
she needs it so much.
my 2 boys are also asd and I’m already stretching myself between the 3 of them.
dealing with school stuff, constant meetings.
trying to do a year 6 transfer review on ehcp and yesterday I got back the final document for the review we done 15 months ago 🤦🏻‍♀️
I don’t think I’ve got the energy to fight it all anymore 😭

They’ve got to be kidding. Absolutely bonkers!

I know it's horrible isn't it. Hopefully you don't have too much longer to wait xx

I sent something special delivery last week and it was scanned in on the day of delivery.

Hi all!
I sent the completed renewal last week, but the original award runs out 2nd week of November.
Did I leave it too late do you think? Panicking now!

@Tiredmamma74 I wasn’t going to call this week but I will be ringing on Thursday where il be 17&1 to see what they say x

Let me know. I’m tempted to call Friday when I’m at 17+1

I will do x

My sons was due to run out on 20th June. I sent renewal forms in on 4th June. I called a few days later to check they’d been received and they had but hadn’t been scanned. So she scanned them straight away and my renewal was completed a week before it run out. @Whereisautumn

I'm 17 weeks Thursday. My scan date is the 15th June. Feel anxious as there have been a few people awarded from the 6/7 June

Morning just to give you idea of time frame, scan date 6th of June. Called this morning and a decision was made yesterday for HR care intill 2025. So all on all 17+6 days for us. Good luck wishing everyone the best of luck for your little ones..x

Hi everyone I’m just parking up. 6/6 here and heard nothing. I rang up at 17 weeks and was told 19 weeks don’t ring up until after then

Congratulations so happy for you and your little one. Hopefully we will see lots more awards coming over the next week 😊

Thank you such a relief, such a horrendous journey but hopefully will be worth it for you.x

Same! I am tempted to call at the end of the week though...

Hi all, like many I have been keeping an eye for the last few weeks. Today I am 17 weeks with my scan date being 13/6.
I am working today so can’t call, have any with the same/similar scan date had any information whether their claim is with a DM yet?
I am trying to stay positive- like many. My daughter has an ADHD diagnosis and due to her marvellous masking, school are very unhelpful and to the point where they have refused to put a one plan in place- last academic year. She has a new teacher this year and I am waiting for our up and coming parents evening to push for more to be done. Especially as the ‘SATs’ are looming, and I know she will struggle with the overwhelming fear of failure. She is a bright button and because of that I feel she is allowed to slip through the net. But at home she explodes with emotions outbursts and for someone who doesn’t struggle academically her care needs do not correlate to this. She needs help with dressing,undressing,hygiene, no sense of danger or social context. She still wets the bed, and bedtime in itself is a battle as her anxiety and creative imagination prevents her from getting to sleep. She gets angry hits out and damages things. She is a beautiful whirlwind 😂 If anyone has a little
girl who is very much a like, and can share if their daughter has received/ been refused DLA this would be great. If they have contacted the school I can only imagine this won’t be forthcoming for a positive DLA outcome. For the extra information/statement we got her childminder to complete this which outlines and shares similar care needs we face at home. The only evidence we sent was her diagnosis report.
It is so true, the closer you get,more anxiety seeps through. Sending lots of crossed fingers for everyone else in the same boat nervously waiting an outcome.

Hi all just to update everyone on my timeline. Scan date of 06/06/2023.
Rang today to be told my daughter has been awarded HRC and LRM the decision was made yesterday at 17+6 days.

Just marking my place here , hope everyone gets their decision soon xx

Scan date 23/06 the last two weeks or so are dragging!! I want to phone but there’s no point as I’m only 15+4 but my boy was diagnosed with autism two weeks ago so I’m hoping we get awarded and trying to be patient, Good luck everybody xxx

Would someone please advice me on the universal credit side of things ? In regards to what we need to inform them.

im scan date 5/6 and still waiting to hear. anyone else around my date still waiting like me? its still with decision manager the last time I called x

I'm 06/06. I chased them up about 2 weeks ago and was told up to a 20 week wait time! I've seen a few others getting their decision for around our dates now so hopefully we'll hear shortly.

I don't seem to have received any post for well over a week now. Do they let you know about the decision any other way than by letter? I'm mainly concerned about them refusing my claim and me not knowing about it for weeks due to lack of post.

I'm the 6/6 I called on Thursday it was with a decision maker, they put a note on the account to text when a decision was made. I hadn't heard anything so called this morning and the decision was made yesterday. They didn't text! Maybe give them a call surly a decision would be made by now.

oh interesting cos I had a note put on to text once decision was made cos i kept calling everyday - congratulations! Maybe i will call - i have been trying to fight the urge but surely should have heard by now, its been with DM since weds x

right - on hold to get through - Feeling so anxious! xx
