DLA WAITING TIME 2024

I agree!!!!! We just need that person to start it all😅

The 06/01 x

Thank you 💖. I'v had cry with Freya and back on top form 😂 💪 x

Sorry question time!
How is the mobility worked out? I have seen smi and uvm? Bit I have no clue!
My little man (8) has asd &adhd diagnosed hypermobilty and on the length wait (3yrs) for dyspaxia although ot assessed and rang to say his scores were in the 0.1% for high probability ... he struggles with fine and gross motor and walking tires him super easily and causes pain (which he struggles to tell me) and is always falling or tripping ..stairs are difficult for him 2.... am I right in thinking they would poss award lrm?

If you go into detail and have plenty of evidence then i dont see why you wouldnt get hmr? Im unsure on smi etc so hopefully someone can give you more info. I know @Tasha0429 is currently awaiting smi coc. Maybe she can explain more xx

Only just had confirmation they sending report to me for those, it's frustrating we wait ages for appointments then months more for reports :-/

Yeah as fee said if you've got evidence to prove he meets all rules he should definitely get it, so if you Google smi rules there's a flow chart you have to meet each rule, and when answering the DLA questions give details of meets smi rules 1 ect if that makes sense there's loads of information online, I don't know the rules on VUW but apparently that's supposed to be similar from what I read off someone on here, don't take my word for that though xx

Yeah i find the reports take the longest to come through even though thats what you need the most 😂

Agree, always the first to support us here. So sorry you and your family, especially your little one, went thought that - absolutely awful. Hugs to you xxx.

Thank you and that youn@Fee89

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Omg I am sooo happy for you!! ❤️❤️❤️

@Fee89
broke my heart reading your post, I do hope you're okay now! I know it can get frustrating but this cute Thread Tribe we've got here are here for you!
It's even more frustrating when you're ringing up and each day it's something different being told. I have my fingers tightly crossed for you honey! 🤞🏼❤️

@Justkeepsplashing @Persianpoppy Thank you both very much. Seeing how strong she is, is what keeps me going. Life is manic but i always have time for everyone and treat others with kindness.....unless they annoy me 😂🥰

I know I'm late but who had been awarded and their scan date was March ? I'm just asking because mine is Marxh too

You're both so strong! ❤️ don't give up hope yet! These DMs and call handlers don't know half the crap we have go through for our poor little souls!

They havnt been awarded. Call handler marked their claim as priority x

@Persianpoppy It's mainly the call handlers. Half of them dont know left from right 😬 xx

Oh that's fine, I was getting my hopes up 😂

They are sometimes quite rude too . It's like we chose to have children with special needs and we like calling in .

@Akkhan94 I had a rude one last week. She kept calling my daughters claim a renewal then went on to say 'you have been told to wait 15 weeks' my response 'And you have been told its a new claim but still call it renewal so i guess thats both of us that dont listen' she wasnt very impressed 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’d lose my mind if I saw a march scan date being awarded 😂😂😂 here’s me waiting from November 😅

I bet she didn’t like that 😅 you probably humbled her and from then on she wasn’t rude to anyone again. Good one 😉

@TiredTilly If it stops them being rude to someone else then im glad 😂. When are you checking in for an update? Or are you waiting the full 10 days? Xx

I’m going to give them a ring on Monday see what progress has been made. Also having no luck with child benefit either 🙁 since when has child benefit been so difficult !
how many weeks you waited now?xx

Hello I am new here ☺️
I've been reading your thread today and I'm a total newbie to Mumsnet so please forgive my lingo.
Parking 5/01, I do not believe I probably sent enough evidence but I have new evidence ready to send with a MR if rejected. My oldest son currently gets HRC HRM as he is disabled with complex needs. My youngest (who is current awaiting decision) is undiagnosed ASD, SPD, GDD. My question is when you receive the text from DWP that they are still looking at the application, does this mean that a DM has now started to look at it? I sent the form via recorded delivery, letter came to confirm scan date as 5/01. I only received the text last Monday. Haven't heard anything yet, I wasn't going to call but this thread makes me want to now 🤣🤣 Tia for any insight. Best of luck to all of you x
