@Tiredmummy1235 I’m the same 🙈 I don’t know what to do! I suppose calling at 9am on the dot will be easier 🥴 x

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 08:39

@mummyof3girlsx yeah am sitting here thinking should I. Will they even tell me anything knowing my luck they will say wait until the end of March to phone again. 😂😂 just trying to think of excuse to phone.

Morning everyone. Really in two minds about calling. Scan date 9/11 but this wait is driving me round the bend. I just want to know if it’s even with a DM just got a feeling am going to have to ready for a MR. I sent off my daughters Ed psych report and her draft EHCP. Still haven’t got the final since before Christmas. Just don’t know if it will be a waste of time.

This is how I feel I just need to know either way! I feel if I ring it might jinx me! I'm 7/11 so please update us if you call 😂

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 08:58

@bonz2023 am giving in and ringing hopefully I get a nice person 😂😂 hate the ones who just count weeks. Then tell you it’s in the biggest holding pile. But will update wish me luck 🤞

mummyof3girlsx · 16/02/2024 09:00

@Tiredmummy1235 ok keep us updated 🙈🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

Justanotherboymum89 · 16/02/2024 09:11

Just called and got straight through. Scan date 25/10 told it’s been passed off but in the queue for a DM so it’s not even on their desk yet 😩 she told me I’d looking at mid march. Called for forms 13/09 so if we are awarded it’s a nicer back pay for my son but the wait is driving me insane and all I can think was that was her way of being kind and not letting me down over the phone telling me it’s a decline

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 09:13

Am still on hold I think they going to tell me to ring back in March. Going to say seen dates after mine being awarded.

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 09:18

I was right it’s still in a holding pile. He was so lovely though he told me to ring by the 7th March if I haven’t heard anything. The wait goes on. 😭😭

mummyof3girlsx · 16/02/2024 09:19

@Tiredmummy1235 Ok Atleast we know 🙈 another 2/3 week wait 🤢 we can do it xx

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 09:24

@mummyof3girlsx it does in deed but he did say things can change quickly but should of definitely heard by then. He also said there a delay with letter getting sent out. So I think people are definitely better ringing. If they not getting the texts.

LancsMcG · 16/02/2024 09:24

Scan date 20/10

Spoke with Zoe - very very nice and helpful

It's finally with a decision maker - and both documents I sent in December and January (info from nursery and letter from Private consultant) have bene received (the letter from consultant was only scanned on yesterday but posted at least 3 weeks ago)

I also asked about text messages - and they said it varies from DM to DM - as to if and when they send them

She said a lot of people notice money in their bank first!

She said to call again next week to see if there's any updates)

Gemmaoscar · 16/02/2024 09:28

The wait is torture hopefully it’s all over soon x

Did he say mine was in the same pile 😂😂

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 09:30

@bonz2023 😂😂😂 it could well be.

bonz2023 · 16/02/2024 09:32

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 09:30

@bonz2023 😂😂😂 it could well be.

Well I'm a couple of days before you so I'll try my best to wait until March 7th if I haven't heard before x

Tiredmummy1235 · 16/02/2024 10:07

@bonz2023 am far to impatient but starting to see the end. Might call them again on the 1st 😂😂

Hayz0711 · 16/02/2024 10:16

Has anyone received a text for renewal/CoC or is it for new claims only?

Tangerin · 16/02/2024 10:32

Ahh. I feel best way for me is going to be to just put it in my brain that I am going to be declined or forget I even put a claim in and move on.
Because otherwise I spend every day just thinking about this.
And if I have to do one of those Mr I think I won't be able to handle it.
What is so weird is that I posted some documents for the CA unit on Wednesday at 5:20 pm and I rang today and was told they got them yesterday. Shocked. In one day they were already received and acknowledged?
How can it be so different to DLA???

Although Monday will be 5 weeks waiting for CA when some people get it within a week.

I hate waiting!

@TamGirl89 I phoned first thing this morning
My scan date is 20/10 and is now with DM
fingers crossed we hear very soon and it's a positive outcome

They did tell me (when asked) that a text on the outcome varies to DM to DM and most people find out when a payment goes into their bank

SarahJL12 · 16/02/2024 10:51

@Hayz0711 i have same scan date as you 19/10. Glad to see yours is with a DM, fingers cross for you. Please keep us updated. Mine was in a holding q last Thursday so I'm hopeful mine is also with a DM by now. I think I will wait until Tues to ring if I haven't heard anything by then

Oh wow let's hope we both have good news next week then 🤞🏻 that's actually really useful to know about the text because that's what I've kind of been waiting for, so thank you for that!
Please keep me posted if you don't mind, really hope our wait is nearly over xx

KellieD90 · 16/02/2024 11:15

Don't give up hope! I rang this morning and my little girl has been awarded HRC and LRM. Scan date 17/10 only found out when I rang (no text) I called Monday and it had only just gone to the decision maker so it was really quick as she was awarded yesterday. Hopefully you all get the awards you need for your child/children. Absolutely over the moon ☺️ thank you all for keeping me sane throughout this long process!!

Bsmumummaj · 16/02/2024 11:25

Didn't realise there was a new thread!! Can someone clarify this? Got this back from dm. Uc said its wrong? I get lcwra and partner works. What is there to do?
