DLA wait times part 32

[Emma2345]

New thread as this 1 is nearing the end now

So sorry to ask, when they rang you what type of questions did they ask you? Xxx

Fingers crossed for the end of Oct dates this week...an me .. I'm hoping dm made there decision over the weekend 🙏

Scan date 23/9, school only just evidence back to DM on Friday :( was requested end of January’. Any idea how long I’ll have to wait now for a decision? X

Good luck everyone waiting. Hope this is the last thread I'm on 😂 scan date 9th November but had a letter about physio for my little man and not sure if I will have time to send it?!? 😔 Might ring and ask tomo morning. (I've had 2 letters and 1 text so far) 🤞 for everyone x

@lillyT83 mine went dm thur I called 4pm Friday and the guy added it on to computer over fone give them a ring I think some don't and are quite rude but they can do it xx

Thank you so much I will call tomorrow morning hope you get your decision asap. My son has a twin sister and she has been getting DLA for 2 years (done a coc 28th Nov) and it took 8 weeks, this is really horrible this wait now 😢

@rjnicola same scan date as you. 2 letters, no text messages. My original letter said it would take 15 weeks...

Just seen this thread, week 16 today.

I didn’t realise there was so many in the same boat!

What’s scan date? I sent mine back 3/11/23, only had another letter about 15 week wait and apologising a few weeks ago.

Since I sent mine off DS has seen a lot more professionals and has more help, I’m worried the application will get rejected because he was only under community peads when I sent the forms.

Sorry to jump on. My daughter was also only under peads when I applied and my daughter was awarded this week. I just sent a letter from her health visitor and teacher as well as her peads reports. It's more about what you write on the forms detailing all the care/mobility needs

@Marie156 ah fantastic thank you! I wrote in detail. Congratulations on being awarded :)

Scan date 15/10 - just woke up to find a big payment in our bank. Looking like HRC (just need to work it out properly)
I sent no evidence in, no additional paperwork. Only the form. Good luck everyone. If your claim is with a DM you won't be waiting too much longer. X

Fantastic news!

@SamBusyMam congratulations on your award ❤️ 🤞 for all of us still waiting hopefully for loads of awards this week x

Both my letters said 15 weeks aswell. Don't understand why they quote 15 weeks on it if they are not meeting that target . Just want to know either way now

@SamBusyMam congratulations xx

Can anybody confirm when l phone what are the extension numbers I need to pick. Called Friday and the options had changed since I last phoned so was unsure which options l needed.

I was 15 weeks on Thursday and got my 1st text bang on Thursday. Hopefully it should come soon for you.

I know the first option is 5 then I'm almost certain I pressed 2 then 1.

@xxAmy they asked what happens when she wakes and if she needs supervising with certain activities she was so lovely and said must be difficult not knowing what triggers her epilepsy and also asked how many nights roughly is she up and how long for xxx

@SamBusyMam congratulations xxxx

Amazing news well done x

Brilliant!

18weeks today 23/10 said was with dm Monday then when I called Friday it was with a cm and they called me later that day asking why my forms was in late think I'm going to ring this morning xx

I don't think I can cope with another week of this 😂😂
