DLA Wait times part 24

[Ash135]

Continuing on from part 23 as it was getting full

Still with cm I'm going to call first thing xx

@Looloo12332 good luck! If I hadn’t had phoned on Friday I wouldn’t have known as I haven’t received a letter or text and the money hasn’t gone in my bank yet so fingers crossed it’s the same for you xx

@Terrie1100 have you been paid yet, we are same scan date. I tried to call a few times in week but had to hang up in the end as needed to get things done.

@cocoapple I just hope after all this my dd gets what she is deserved at least the letter from the dr was scanned in and the report from school when I last called xx

@Looloo12332 how long did it take for the extra evidence to be scanned if you don’t mind me asking ? X

Mine got scanned in the same day they received it but I did send recorded don't know if that made a difference x

Sorry probs been asked a million times. Where to send extra evidence to recorded please? X

They do have a freepost address too, but I would advise you to send Special Delivery (Recorded at the very least), from speaking to other parents that tends to get it scanned on the day it arrives. Several people not using SD or R had evidence ‘go missing’. Also photocopy (or at least take a picture on your phone) everything

Hi all, just wondered how long it took to receive the letter once child has been awarded, I called on Thursday and said my daughter had been awarded on the Wednesday but wasn’t sure how long the letter took to come? Good luck to all waiting hope you all get a positive result TYIA x

@mumtumok I furst sent it off 4 weeks ago and it wasn't scanned so snet it again special delivery and was scanned within 3 days xx

@Looloo12332 brilliant thank you hun, I also sent mine 2-3 weeks ago and it hasn’t been scanned yet so think I might have to do it recorded . Xx

What dates are they on at the moment?
my scan date was 24.08 & didn’t know if it would be anywhere near yet :)

Has anyone been awarded with just an autism diagnosis? My scan date is 17/08 and I’m so nervous because everyone send loads of evidence and I only have her diagnosis

week 17 on monday hoping to hear soon scan date 25th / aug

Week 17 for me this week too. 23/08. Fingers crossed we get an answer just before they close for Christmas!

@Shauna12 I was awarded on Thursday my scan date was 14/08. I only sent off a SALT report

My scan date is 14/8, still waiting

@cocoapple thank you for getting back to me, I applied last year but she didn’t have a diagnosis I got knocked back, but one I got her diagnosis I sent her salt letter off too. It’s good to know that I have a chance

My older children got awarded when we had only just been referred for a diagnosis. We submitted no evidence. Had help from carers resource to complete the form. The teachers then just filled the 'someone who knows your child' page in the the form in too.They got LRM and HRC.

@FuriousAboutHummus thank you x

Just sent form off yesterday for my dc and keeping fingers crossed. I can see I’m in for quite a wait! I’m assuming late April likely given Christmas is in the way.

Is anyone near my scan date 15/8 I’m phoning up tomorrow

18 weeks for me tomorrow still not heard xx

I'm scan date 14/8 I called Friday the guy I spoke to was really nice, he said there working towards the 14th now and working overtime at the weekends, so calling tomorrow morning hoping to hear something xx
