DLA WAIT TIME THREAD 37

[MLW92]

.

We've already waited this long...what's a few more weeks right 🤣 xx

Congrats to all of those who have been awarded 🎉🎉🎉

Congrats!!!!!!

Does anyone no how much you get on iv for mrc? Or do they take money of you ?

Sorry uc

I think it's around £170 for lrc and mrc and around £450 for high

Pointless phonecall, man told me they have my application and my own scan date, that its 'currently being looked into', and that he doesnt know if its with a decision maker or not as he cant see that information.
Awesome.

Thank you 😊

Make sure you claim carees element that is £185 extra nothing taking from you on top of the £170 with UC

Can I do that if I work? I work 16 hour Week.

Awe congratulations!! I also got awarded! I hope you got what you was hoping for x

Yes you can uts not the same as cares allowance.. you just need to update UC change of circumstances go under caring for someone for 35+ hr aweek and put the details in of when the award starts and finishes. Then leave a note that you are now in receipt of MRC dla and wanting the disability premium and cares elements to be added and backpayed from award start date

I work as well. Iam self employed. I didn’t know about the carers element. Thank you xx I’ll request for it to be all backdated as well

Hi does anyone know what the award lengths are based on? They awarded me for 2 years however I seen some people get awarded for a year others longer

Great, glad that I helped a few out, they don't like to mention these things unless you mention them first lol xx

I think they like toaward till the child's 5th birthday in most cases to start with manly depending on condition/ disability

I have seen alot of people getting awards from 5 until 12 once renewed

Ok makes sense. My son was awarded until the age of 5. Thank you again

I'm now in a que to let them now she gets child benefit xx

No problem 😊 x

Nice to see those with mid Dec scans getting awarded I’m only 2 weeks behind so gives me hope! Is the money backdated from UC if entitled? Is that carers element and disabled child element? Thanks x

@Momtotwobeautifulkids they won’t take money off you unless you claim carers allowance I work and asked for disability element and carers element x

Congrats to those awarded. I’ll ring Monday I think

1 hour 18 minutes and I’m still on hold 😭

Thank you I just do it on my uc. Xxx
