How long to wait for health in pregnancy grant?

[CocoK]

I applied two weeks ago (during the postal strike...) and haven't heard anything. Does anyone know roughly how long it will take to come through? Thanks.

hello
it took five weeks for mine to be processed - he said that a few weeks ago there was a backlog because of the postal strike.

I sent off my application at the end of October and my payment was sent out last Friday (not in my account yet though)
