I’ve also got the scan date 15/12

Same scan date as me. I heard 2-3 weeks with DM but unsure how true that is. Surely it can’t be May if they’ve sent letters saying 15 weeks. I think the person you spoke to must be getting mixed up…well hopefully they were! Good Luck!

Mines been with dm 16 days 😬😑 xx

Vickyxxx · 15/03/2024 12:51

My scan date is the 17/11 and still not with a dm, has anyone else got this scan date?

Oh no! It’s shocking really! I hope you hear some good news soon!

Tangerin · 15/03/2024 13:01

@katiewil mine has been with a DM for over 3 weeks now and in all honesty I have no hopes that I will hear any time soon. I am hoping for the first week of April. Scan date 13/11

Squadmum41 · 15/03/2024 13:02

Just had the "sorry we haven't made a decision yet letter" . Claims 15wks so if I believe it, should have a decision end of April ish....scan date for son 1 is 19/01 even though I sent forms back well before Christmas 🤷‍♀️.

Fingers crossed for everyone waiting and congratulations to all awarded .

katiewil · 15/03/2024 12:42

Scan date 15/12 phoned today and they said it has been assigned to decision maker but 03/05 is the date I've been given for decision

Anyone know if it does take that long once it goes to DM?

I think that would make you 20wks? I'm 4/12 and that would make me about and 21 and half weeks so I'm presuming it to be that. That is what they are probably working as the deadline. It'll probably be before that though. I got told 20th April before going to dm last week and then been told 2 weeks today so I would take that with a pinch of salt tbh. Is yours a first claim? X

katiewil · 15/03/2024 13:09

@KatexCR
Yeah it's my first claim
I am not hopeful for it to be accepted as the only supporting evidence I have at the moment is her IDP (EHCP I think it means in England) and her teacher and 1:1 wrote a statement but the wait feels like forever!

Does ringing up make your application quicker?

im on week 13 and ive never rang them

No.

I didn't ring at all; I was awarded at 16 weeks 1 day and received the bank pay (how I first found out I had been awarded) at 16 weeks 4 days. I received my letter of award at 17 weeks.
