@RayahB it still well might be . Did you add who knows the child ?I think if they don’t get lots of evidence they go down that route ! From having children with SEN and working with them that’s what I’ve seen . I work in education and we have a few kids who’s applied for DLA successfully without them contacting us at school ! I think if you have the diagnosis proof and have filled out needs then it’s self explanatory that you do meet the criteria . Don’t know if the DM’s all think this way ! Good luck !
