Dla wait times part 35

[Emma2345]

New thread as this one is nearing the end ,, also going to post a separate thread for people either waiting for MR’s or starting the process of one (mandatory recommendation)

That's amazing!! Made up you got what you need for your little one x

I called this morning to find out my rates as I got my text last weds.. I get hrc lrm until oct 2025! Good luck to everyone still waiting!

Yay same claim date as me… the end is hopefully somewhere in sight! Congrats

Scan date 22/11 - currently on the phone been holding for 1hr 12 mins ! Wish me luck 🙏

It seems so long ago doesn't it! Fingers crossed for you!

I updated the child bit so home screen change children and people live you you click on child enter details you MUST click DLA and then once finished change "caring for someone" finish the steps update the journal and request it to be backdated from the date you claim is awarded from and say the reason it'd late is because you have just been told you have been awarded and then wait ..... people seem to have trouble but I live in Dorset so everyone is always nice on my UC 🤣🤣 I have left a note today to ask if they have backdated it as the guy said he changed the claim and completed the actions for me

Do you know when your decision was made? I'm 8/12 x

Congratulations ❤️❤️

Thank you , still no clearer as to why it had been done so quick even woman on the phone was shocked so I definitely don’t think they go in order

@Mumof4mmmf i rang 9am on the dot and got through I was awarded 14th of march middle rate care till 2025 x

Hi Yes it was a new claim

@TealFawn does your child have an actual diagnosis? Marge this is why it was so fast? Or maybe your DM is fast as hell haha

@Fudgie9922 ive done that I think I’ve done it all the change in circumstances properly and I have put on my journal about back payment I just put that I was just informed of my daughters dla award I’m not very good at wording things🤣🤣it’s come up as middle component that’s right isn’t it? omg your from Dorset?!?! That’s where I used to live but moved away over a year ago! Everyone’s lovely on the Uc there!! Wouldn’t know about where I live now but we’ll found out! Xxxxx

Yeh it does. Altho back in 2022/2023 I claimed for my middle son and it did take approx 13/14 weeks and that was when you were told 12 weeks … it still felt forever then! Can I ask did you call to check at all? When I called today mine ‘had not been looked at’ were the cal handlers words but I know sometimes things can move quite quick - have seen people been told this on earlier threads to then be rewarded the next day or two.

@TealFawn oh thats bloody quick i bet your over the moon. I'm on hold now as I was waiting until tomorrow's first salt app to send in more supporting evidence gonna say I'm checking if iv got time to send in more stuff lol

No diagnosis yet awaiting for assessments for autism and whether he has sensory processing disorder , only difference my son was born poorly although that’s resolved now and he’s currently got 7 referrals open under different specialties

@Lolly966 yeah I moved here 4 years ago now from Surrey only annoying this is like big shops tescos asda ect are a drive away I live in Sturminster so it's around a 20 min drive but other than that the sen nursery is amazing and facilities it's very quiet though 🤣🤣

@Lolly966 aw brilliant congratulations 🥳 am in hold now see if evidence is on system 😳 probably not xx

Your DM must be having coffee on intravenous drip 😂😂😂. Wish mine would haha x

Hi have you heard anything yet xx

@Mothertothreeboys thank you so much!! I honestly thought it was a decline, I cried🥺 I’ve got my fingers crossed for you!!! Xx

Congratulations on all awards today x

I have asked if she got awarded under special circumstances and she said no just normal. Bizarre how the system works 🤔

I bet u did its awful glad it’s over for u, thanks hun cx

On hold for over an hour..
Lovely guy who told me it was awaiting a reference number for my little one, case was only assigned to someone new today 🤦🏼‍♀️ this is week 19 today and the second time I’ve been informed it’s a top priority. He did email the person whilst I was on the phone to chase it after I complained that her cancer treatment will have finished by the time I ever hear anything!
He did say he’d call me if he gets an update from the assigned person today.
Scan date 30/10 - appears if you’ve never claimed anything for your child before that’s why it takes longer 🙄 as they need an NI number (it’s why I’ve a clerical number)
