@Loup19863 its soul destroying isn’t it 😔 x

Loup19863 · 06/01/2024 08:53

@Mumtotwogirls01 absolutely. The wait times are just shocking. I went through it earlier this year with my other child, got a decision at exactly 18wks and that was bad enough, the stress and anxiety waiting to see if they can get the help they need is just awful. Can’t believe the waiting times have gotten even worse, people waiting 21 wks plus is just disgusting x

@Geegee1506

Linacre96 · 06/01/2024 10:19

Hi, I’ve just received my award letter but it’s baffling me and I’m not sure what my award date is so I can update UC. Can anybody help please?

Jneill2021 · 06/01/2024 10:43

@Keddie thank you for the update still can't believe they lost your evidence fingers crossed they make the decision in your little ones favour xx

Hi, I’ve been a long time silent follower on this thread, scan date was 29th August, so almost 19 weeks. Just wanted to let you know I got a text update today confirming my child has qualified, so they must be working on weekends. I called on Thursday and it wasn’t on anyone’s desk at that time. Good luck to all those still waiting.

Liddyj · 06/01/2024 11:33

@Nik1619 congratulation's that’s amazing news xx

Jmam · 06/01/2024 11:39

@Nik1619 great news bet you are now just waiting to call on Monday to find out what your child got awarded.
Thanks for letting us all know

Nik1619 · 06/01/2024 11:44

Thank you I am so happy wasn’t expecting it and definitely not expecting an outcome on a Saturday, I’m now itching to call Monday to find out the rates.

funinthesun19 · 06/01/2024 11:53

@Nik1619 Congratulations! x

Tylerjade89 · 06/01/2024 11:56

@Nik1619 I'm the same scan date 🤞 I called a couple days ago and they said it wasn't with a DM yet but was close to the top!
So happy you got your decision 🎉

Linacre96 · 06/01/2024 12:08

@Paige36 im pretty sure the date your award started from on the letter is the date you put on UC

Nik1619 · 06/01/2024 12:17

Thank you, I hope you get your decision soon. I honestly thought I’d be waiting at least two more weeks to hear anything.

Paige36 · 06/01/2024 13:01

@Linacre96 thank you, I figured it out in the end! It’s because I sent the form a month before my daughter turned 5 so I got 2 award dates. HRC until her 5th birthday then HRC and LRM from her 5th birthday to 2025, threw me off a bit😂

Babzie · 06/01/2024 13:21

28/8
Still sat here waiting 🤣🙈
Its driving me nuts hoping to hear something by next week 19 weeks on Monday last text was 21/09

Holly1991 · 06/01/2024 14:42

I'm also the 01/09 the wait is awful hopefully it won't be much longer

Linacre96 · 06/01/2024 14:58

@Holly1991 im 01/09 i might ring Tuesday see if it’s even with a dm

Holly1991 · 06/01/2024 15:02

@Linacre96 I did try calling twice last week but both times I was either cut off or ran out of lunch break 🤣
Good luck keep me updated and if I call ill also let you know 😁

Linacre96 · 06/01/2024 15:25

@Holly1991 well there getting close and doing end now I think week commencing 28th would of been passed to DM which ours was the Friday so hopefully it is
