DLA wait times part 17.. (2023)

[Mummyrach13]

Following on from part 16…..

No decision as of yet went to a DM 26/10 so she said should be any day, call back end of the week or wait for letter etc. Good luck to anyone else calling x

I felt so sick whilst waiting for the Lady to check 😬😂 x

Hi scan date 3rd of July here , rang just now and it’s with a decision maker , gosh I feel sick. Should have a decision this week the lovely lady said.

@Mummyrach13 i really don’t understand how there working it🫥 I’m 100% it’s just a coincidence with the approvals after 5week from last text because 29th onwards are getting awarded .. they’ve really got to find a more strategic way of making decisions.. x

Definately @LGR004 well looks like there into July too now so hoping mine will be any day! I have literally had no sleep! It’s going to be a long few days x

@Mummyrach13 i know :( just try keep your mind occupied etc till Thursday ish perhaps and give a ring then xx

Ohh I see some July dates good luck Helen ❤️ hi all can yous all keep us updated today with calls/scan dates etc xxxx if I’m honest I’m starting to think it’s not even in order as some late scans are awarded before hand but good luck to each one of you xxxx

I may call again Thursday as we have an appt with our camhs psychiatrist Thursday am and she will give another report if needed so be good to know if I’m needing to do a MR or not for then x

Called on the dot of 9 and spoke to someone in under 20 mins - a record! The automated message that keeps getting stuck and repeating is rather annoying.

Scan date 6/7 and told they're going to 19 weeks now so still in the holding queue.

I may call again Friday to see if a decision has been made , our ehcp is also with panel awaiting a decision so I’m going to have a very nervous week I think.

Just phoned and got through after 15 mins been awarded hrc and lrm until 2025, I feel like such a huge weight has been lifted, I can breathe

Good luck everyone hope you all get what you and your babies deserve 🤞

On hold now, scan date 30/6 x

I’m so happy for you 😊

Keeps cutting me off is anyone else having this problem x

@Courtneymxo i did yesterday

I did, just have to keep calling back in, I’ve just got on to be able to wait

I could cry…Phone line keeps going dead and cutting off after the automated message after option 3!! This is so frustrating grrrhhh!!

@Clazamumof2girls yeah that's where it keeps getting cut off for me

Congrats @Mumof385 super happy for you x

i sent off my first born sons July I never had a letter to stay they received it so I called a couple weeks after that, was told it was in 21/6 I’ve had two texts and this is the first time calling now, I’m worried as I couldn’t send much evidence as he was awaiting all the assessments and they ended up getting pushed back and are all now happening next week. His school filled out as he presents the same at home and in school so I’m hoping that will help.

ive just sent in my younger sons this morning, he has e letter from paediatric doctors and education psychologist and the school and still awaiting more assessments.

it was my family worker who said to get the ball rolling on this I just worry that there isn’t enough 😥

congrats mumof385 your wait is over happy for you! Xxxx

I mean JUNE 🙈🙈

Scan date 29/06, just got through and it was assigned to case manager yesterday, should have an answer by end of the week
