If my DD’s claim is declined what is the MR process like? Do I need to fill in some more forms? I’m fully preparing myself for the worst but I want to know exactly what to do if it happens. Does the claim just simply get sent to a different decision maker?

She has an appointment with her paediatrician next Friday, so I’d have a new report to send if needed.

@Calypsomum I'm 21st. Every call handler seems to have their own theories and time lines. You could call again and the next person will tell you something completely different.

Calypsomum · 20/12/2023 10:16

Yes I'm finding that too

Dorisnelson1981 · 20/12/2023 10:19

Kezildon · 20/12/2023 10:23

Always been the case, think they just tell us it’ll be weeks so that we stop calling 🤣

Momtothreeboys · 20/12/2023 10:31

@TiredFairy81 Yeah I was paid last week, they said it would take upto 5 working days to go in my bank. Think it took 3 days. Hope you get a decision soon love x

Dorisnelson1981 · 20/12/2023 11:08

I’ve heard nothing was going to ring but been so busy at work today

Casslou22 · 20/12/2023 11:32

Messaged on my journal yesterday for uc to update them about dla ... decision maker said yes to back pay yesterday rang me today to say money will be in my account Friday...
It's quick if you have a actual work coach so shouldn't wait too long to get the back pay :)

SENASD · 20/12/2023 11:43

@Calypsomum Me, I rung on Mon and was told with cm but no text yet

2010crazyboymum · 20/12/2023 13:09

My concern is now schools are off for 2 weeks does this now potentially delay them further?

Laurahansom28 · 20/12/2023 13:16

Mines the 6th September. I'm guessing we won't hear a thing now until the new year.

mumtumok · 20/12/2023 13:36

I’m 28/09 I’m hoping they get through September dates quickly in jan 🙏

Laurahansom28 · 20/12/2023 13:42

Here's hoping. I will update if/when I hear anything. I'm 6/9

Laurahansom28 · 20/12/2023 13:43

Ohh keep us updated if you hear anything. This wait time is shocking isn't it.

Toni1228 · 20/12/2023 13:50

RaychieBee · 20/12/2023 13:54

I'm 21/08 and heard nothing and told my claim wasn't being looked at for another 3/4 weeks. Told me not to ring back till Feb.

Siobhangrace · 20/12/2023 14:18

I’m the 27th im praying we hear jan sometime 🙏🏽

cocoapple · 20/12/2023 14:20

Has anyone who was awarded from around the 14th had their back payment yet?

Laurahansom28 · 20/12/2023 16:41

I'm only on one text too but that's my own fault as I've changed number and not managed to get through to give them my new one. X
