Parking 🚗 scan date 06/01 🤞Last thread

Yay finally someone with the same date as me 🥰

Hopefully it will be, been following since thread 27 lol x

Has anyone received an award over the weekend? Mines with a DM and they're looking at it according to today's phone call

Parking 10/1 x

really really hope it’s the last one 😩 I’ve said that the past 5/6 threads😂😂😂
20/11

19/01 and 29/01 how there is 10 days between two claims sent the same day confuses me 🤣

Hi they are open and operate on Saturdays as well. Am sure there’s a uc disabled element for mrc and hrc only. Not lrc

I've seen people on here get the award text on Saturday and have to wait until Monday for phone lines to open to ring for rates. I believe people were also told by call handlers that DM's were working the Easter Bank Holiday but not sure how true that was

Parking - scan date 11.01

08.01

Parking 16/2 half way there 😵‍💫

Parking 12/02 🚗

Parking 12/01 x

Parking 29/01 🙄

Parking 5/2

Evening. How true dla is i dont know 100%. I do know for a fact the pip info is true!
Dla - some are dealing with claims upto 31st Dec, some have started 2024 claims. They still have the odd September/November. They are AIMING for 2023 claims to be completed by (date 🤐) May, could be longer if they have requested statements from medical or school. They have had case workers leave (cant state why) so have taken new staff. Also annual leave over easter. Again how true all this is, i dont know. I asked a friend... So please, dont hunt me down 😂
(100 takeaway 0 )

Pip - Pip medical reviews are taking 51-72 weeks to be reviewed. New claims take priority. New claims can be quicker if you agree to using child's dla evidence. Can still take between 13-20 weeks.

I'v sat with this typed for the last hour unsure if to send or not. I get so weird about passing info on when i dont know for 100% 😥

Got a text message yesterday at 19.35 saying my child qualifies for dla going to ring on Monday to see what he has been awarded
scan date 27th December

🚗 parking for the last time I hope. 20/12

Awh bless you 💕 thank you for the update. Sounds like they’ve got an awful lot going on behind the scenes. But I do wish my DM would get a wiggle on 😂 xx

Congratulations 🥳 just typical that it comes through on a Friday night so you can’t find out for 2 days 😂🙈 I’m pleased your wait is finally over though. I hope it’s what you are hoping for/your child deserves 💕 xx
