[shejokes11]

I made a new thread as the other one consisted mainly of July/August claims. Feel free to insert scan date for the above months and whether it’s a new claim or MR and update when you have been awarded ! Good Luck 🤞🏽
NC - new claims
MR - mandatory reconsideration
SD - scan date se

Congratulations!! I’m so happy for you! What was you’re scan date please x

Thank you! Was a new claim, 11th August x

Great news!!

Morning I’ve just received a call from Dla asking more questions regarding my daughter!! I hope I hear soon

Oh what scan date are you? What were they asking?

Oooh I love to see these updates! Great news :)
Ugh I'm struggling today with the waiting 😭 not just DLA but an assessment, too! All the advocating, adapting and learning has been emotional and I'm always doubting myself...and I just want the answers and support! 😩 Sorry for the rant, I just needed to get that out! Sending you all the best and hoping you all get what you need! X

The 17th August queen they just asked if she was still under the Child development team and when her boots will be fitted and said I will hear with a decision soon so I’m hoping they have already decided! X was told Friday was waiting for a decision maker and it’s still not been picked up but the lady who called me this morning was the decision maker so quite confusing I wasn’t aware they still do claims on a weekend x

I think they just tell you what they feel like when you call them! Fingers crossed you'll see a payment soon!

hopefully I’m told something Monday! And hopefully! What’s your scan date? Are you close to me? X

I think I've probably got a few more weeks yet as my scan date is 1st sept!

Hi, has anyone had any luck with a MR recently or is waiting to hear back from one? Thank you

Hi I’m waiting for SOR to come as I’m going to put in an MR. Also wondered if anyone else has done one and how long it takes x

Im waiting for one; sent 18th August, Original claim was 18th June. Not heard anything yet. When did you senD yours? X

I got a letter to say they’d received my MR on 14th September but my original claim date was 8th June… you should hear back before me so keep me posted please ☺️

Yes absolutely I will, I think they are taking a good few months at least! Watch this space but I will update if I hear anything. Xxx

Morning everyone, any updates for August for anyone else yet? I received a call Saturday asking more questions but no news yet x

Not heard anything yet, i was told Friday it was with decision maker xx

What’s your scan date ? X

I’m SD 15th August and nothing yet

Hopefully we hear soon Im 2 days after yourself x

13th august xx

I'm Aug 21st. It looks like mid augusts are being assigned to decision makers now, so hopefully not long for us!

Just called regarding the call I had Saturday it’s with a case manger I’m assuming that’s the same as a decision maker? X

I think case manger looks first then goes to decision maker. But I could be wrong xx

I just called to make sure the additional information i sent last week for my daughters new claim has been linked to her claim and its in a holding queue for the decision maker... sd was 20th oct Ive probably still got months yet for a decision but I thought that was pretty quick to pass through case manager already!
