Hi,

I applied for Family Fund last week for my LB. I'm just wondering if anyone knows how long it takes to hear from them about the application.

Thanks :)

I applied a 3 times the first time takes longer as they do checks (was probably about 12 weeks). I had a home visit (this was about 2019). After that it was about 4 weeks.

Oh, I didnt know they did home visits.

They don’t really do home visits any more. If they need more information, they sometimes call or ask for more written information.

I know some have heard back really quickly over the summer, but others take a couple of months.
