I don't even want to call them 😭 for them to say, wait 20 weeks! Or just be rude!
My emotions are so high today as my son's had really severe sleep terrors and I'm running on about an hour sleep every day xx

Hi Everyone,

Currently two of my children receive DLA.

Requested application form for my 8 year old in December. Scan date 16th Jan. 15 weeks tomorrow and just had this text through.

Is there any indicator as to when I can expect a decision? Were you awarded soon after the text?

I had the same text at the same time. Scan date 17/01 will be interesting to know if it actually means anything

Fee89 · 29/04/2024 11:37

@Jodess @Persianpoppy Thank you both soo much. Sorry your having a bad day. Things can only get better 💖 xx

Scan date 9/2
Can I just ask does anyone know that if dla contact school what do they send? I came across another forum and someone had posted on there that dla had sent their child’s school some further questions which was all yes/no questions but this forum was from a few years ago so I wondered if it’s still the same?
Because for us apart from a few issues at school he’s quite well behaved so I’d love to know what it is they actually ask school or is each individual DM different? And is the contact done by letter? You’d think they’d call or email to speed things up a bit

They can contact the school, yes. I think this depends on the disability of the child. How it is done though I’m not too sure. From
what I know they like to see how the child behaves at home as well as in school and they look to see if the school confirms what you’re saying on the forms etc. This can be challenging if children mask in school. Good luck.. sorry can’t be more helpful about how they contact the school though.
