good news that your daughter is going home! Hopefully you get some answers regarding your back pay, you’ve waited long enough!

Kc1999x · 12/07/2022 20:07

Anyone know how long it takes uc to get back to you about back pay of carers and disability element? I’ve already noted in my journal and everything

1977s · 12/07/2022 20:54

Kc1999 I don’t know I let universal credit know on the 6 th about my daughter getting DLA and they confirmed it was correct and they wrote in journal they’ve passed it to dm and I will be told though journal I may write in journal tomorrow to see if they have an update

Kc1999x · 12/07/2022 21:34

I updated my elements yesterday to date of the award, then wrote in the journal, haven’t heard anything back, I seen quite a few people say they have issues, will see if they respond tomorrow, if not I’ll leave another message x

Ssabb90 · 12/07/2022 23:41

I left them a message a week ago and Iv had no response, my payment has gone up about £100+ more a month from what I can see. But nothing in regards to a backdate x

Kc1999x · 13/07/2022 07:31

ive seen lots of people say because they haven’t got a work coach their journal doesn’t get looked at, quite a few people have had to make a complaint for a response🤦🏽‍♀️ I’m gonna wait till I get my statement for the month and see if the elements are on that, then I’ll ring about my back pay. Now if it was money we owe them they’d respond straight away😂

Debspurs · 13/07/2022 09:26

Hi I just got off the phone to dla as its 11 weeks tomorrow for my sons claim and the man said they r currently working on 27th April. Mine is the 28th April and he said it should be assigned next week. How much longer should it take then does anyone know? Also I hope this Information helps u.

Ssabb90 · 13/07/2022 09:53

Exactly! Well I eventually got a response and it just said I have sent this to a decision maker. So hopefully it won’t be too long. Has anyone else heard from UC?

debspurs should be around 2 weeks or before if they don’t need to make any further enquiries x

Debspurs · 13/07/2022 10:27

Brilliant ty. Waiting for this is like Waiting for spurs to win a trophy!! I don't receive uc I get tax credits so don't even get the £326 till Sept!
