DLA wait times 27 2024

[Robyn81]

Just starting a new thread as the old one will run out soon

By the sound of it, you have great chances of getting the LR mobility element as well. Get school and probably the GP to write you some good supporting reports. The SENCO as well did mine and it was alright

If he is awake every night you should be entitled to HRC they class night 11pm-7am so for prolonged periods of time during that and you have that from a professional then you will be entitled to that and definitely LRM if not maybe more to HRM but it depends how much evidence and explaining you can do and depends who's desk it lands on

I had a COC in place scan date 7/06 and won HRM for my 3 year honestly so relieved it's all done for a few years now so he gets HRC and HRM

Well done you! Great to know they're working through June already.

Thank you for your responses to my message, I have discussed my child's sleep issues with the dr she seemed to have dismissed it tho and never said much but its a daily occurrence and affects the whole family's sleep

@Mommy2boys30 that's brilliant news

Can you not take videos to prove they might be able to refer to sleep clinic or something

Do DMs work weekends ? Hoping for a miracle of getting a text over the weekend as seen some SDs same as mine 25/6 been awarded today 🤞🤞🤞

Yes, some people have said to have been awarded on the weekend before. Best of luck x

Hi my scan date was 18th July 2024 rang other day and it's with descion maker now roughly how long does it take for them to make descion on dla child claim and hear anything.

Just to say I’m waiting on a mandatory reconsideration and was told it’s up to 25 weeks for this. I’m only on week 12 so got a bloody long wait I think.

Hi my daughters dla ends June 2025 if I send the renewal form back straight away and they decide to reduce from HRC to MRC will I get the HRC payments until.the end if June 2025 or will it be reduced from when they receive the renewal form?.has anyone had a reduction and did it start from the end of the old award or from when they received the renewal form prior to the the ending of current claim?

Hi, my scan date was 29/7 called a few times to be told they have until 13/12 to make a decision a still in a que. Anyone any idea if it will go over or been in a similar situation please?

I'm in a similar situation. SD 22/7 and was told they have until 9/12 to make a decision. Wait until week 18 and give them a nudge.

Okay hun thanks

Anyone with Scan dates 8th/9th July, I've just phoned DLA and they've said they should have a decision by 26th November, this was for both a new claim and a COC, just wanted to let anyone know who may be around a similar time 😊

Hi, has anyone heard from 8th July scan date please? Debating whether to call or not 🤭

Any one had sucess for severe asthma and on waiting list for adhd

Well asked them to look at sons dla claim again been told it could get to 20th of Jan be4 hear out but they had ot since 29th of July there a joke

I would say call the lazy bunch but it's not going to do much since 26th is next week. Call on 26th if no fund in your bank account

Hi.. just place marking in the thread as I've sent my renewal back today, 21/11/24 for my son.

Claim isn't ending until March 25 I think the letter said so done it pretty much within 2 weeks of getting the renewal pack through.

Only thing I'm wondering is it yearly you have to renew? I've seen lots of people saying they've done a renewal and then its last for a number of years? I'll do it either way when they ask, just wondering really!

My understanding is that it pretty much depends on the child's condition and age. If they believe the disability could improve for whatever reason, then they might send frequent renewal notifications. But for severe lifelong disabilities, renewals will be spaced out.

What happens with renewals, do they send you a reminder to reapply or not? And if they take forever to process it, do they continue to pay you or not while they decide whether you still meet criteria?

Any news on sd 18th July yet...I've not heard nothing yet
Really getting me down now

Any updates as to where they are now my sd 18th July
