Hi,

Does somebody know the difference between a case manager and a decision maker?

Not been assigned one yet but just wondered.

Can a case manager make a decision?

Thanks again...

Yes I’m sure it’s the same thing x

Ssabb90 · 29/07/2022 22:05

1977s · 30/07/2022 07:47

Ssabb90 you need to keep putting messages in journal that’s what I did mine took 2 weeks to sort

Kc1999x · 30/07/2022 13:32

I’ve still not heard anything from uc except they can’t give me a time frame lol. I made a complaint as I’ve seen people weeks after me get it sorted straight away. No need for it to be this long lol

Kc1999x I would complain mine took 2 weeks to sort I just kept writing in my journal and then I got told , I hope you hear something soon x

How did you make a complaint, I let them know on the 6th of July. They did not send to a Dm till the 13th. So it’s been ages x

Kc1999x · 30/07/2022 16:44

I think it’s through the gov website. Make a complaint about universal credit online….
and I literally keep messaging in my journal and keep getting told the same thing🤦🏽‍♀️

Hey kcc199,
I’ve been awarded high rate care for my son, what isit that gets backdated?
cos I’m not sure how much I’m due to expect xxx

Kc1999x · 02/08/2022 18:03

So when you change your circumstances do it from the date you was awarded dla. Then your assessment periods that time they’ll add it on to them pays and backdate. So you’ll now be entitled to 414 disabled child element and also 168 carers, x

Als2017 · 02/08/2022 19:33

thank you! I have done the change of circumstances ect just waiting on response xx

Kc1999x · 02/08/2022 21:28

Make sure you message in the journal you want it backdated to the start of the dla award x

Kc1999x · 02/08/2022 21:29

Kc1999x · 03/08/2022 08:47

1977s · 03/08/2022 10:06

Keep on at them in the journal, that’s what I did and after two weeks I told them I wanted an answer and within half an hour I was told and my money went in 2 days later so keep on at them

Staceygrace10 · 03/08/2022 16:13
