DLA Wait Times - Part 28

[FlutterByASD]

Thread following on from part 27

@FlutterByASD Congratulations 🥳

@mez2004 me 🙋🏻‍♀️ my sons is the 27th of September

Yes I believe if your reference number begins with CL it's a clerical application and they have to apply for a NI number which can take quite a while. Fingers crossed you get some answers, I know the wait can be awful and I hope it's sorted for you soon.

scan date 26/09
no text to confirm but woke up with backpay. Can’t believe it. Need to call to confirm rates. Good luck everyone!!

I'm on hold, rang as 9am but ended up being through to pip not child DLA. So had to call back, I'm 15 mins in at the moment, ringing for rates. I just hope my daughter has got MRC atleast as I feel that suits her needs. The wait is nerve wracking on the phone! I thought if we got the award I'd stop stressing but it continues.... Good luck to anyone else calling today xx

@FlutterByASD congratulations babe so pleased for u!!!

@FlutterByASD so happy for you!

@Mariehanna @lpt33 Thank you!! 😊

I’m waitin on my youngest now but not more relaxed 😂 it literally consumes u and takes over your life day in day out otherwise xxx so pleased for ur little one too!

Oh I know it does hahaha First thing I would do when I woke up was check this thread and then my bank 🤣 its all consuming and the anxiety is unbelievable I've never experienced anything like it. Fingers crossed for your second decision, I hope you get some good news soon!! Thank you! 🥰

I've just got through and was told its not with a decision maker yet but he said I was on 16 weeks (I thought 17 5/10) and that I should have another week or two and takes about 17 weeks altogether.

@27Rosie16 I'm 4/10 and was 17 weeks yesterday so you should be today confused why they said that hopefully we hear by week 18 x

@Sarahdestiny have you called for an update? X

Congrats on all the awards for your little ones today! x

@27Rosie16 yes I rang yesterday and basically telling me still taking up to 20 weeks and still not with a dm but if end of September dates are being done this week surly we should be done next week but then again I've seen people after us been awarded so God knows what's going on we must be put in the slow pile lol where you from im from derby east Midlands x

I only knew as backpay went in yesterday, so I'm guessing I was awarded Friday 26th.

Rang yesterday to confirm rates. Never thought to check date awarded or next payment date. Guessing next payment will be either Weds 21 or 28 Feb. Hopefully the letter might come today.

So happy my daughter has been awarded this morning, HRC and then LRM when she turns 5 over the moon and also got a lovely lady on the phone which helps! good luck everyone!

@FFlutterByASD thought I'd update you haha been so helpfull
