I’ve been waiting on a text all day but now wish I’d rang 😂 Congratulations to everyone that’s been awarded!

Spicegirl91 · 08/05/2024 18:06

@Fee89 i sent in his official diagnosis which was a very detailed document and lots of evidence to support the need for HRC. I guess because it was COC it was pretty straight forward x

Spicegirl91 · 08/05/2024 14:33

COC scan date 29/01
called today and my sons claim has changed from MRC LRM to HRC LRM so we are really pleased.

hope everyone else gets answers soon

How many weeks did it take ? I applied for COC too

Has anybody seen any successful HRM claims for ASD under 5? Is it worth MR if refused?

My son got high rate at 4 with no diagnosis it all went on how much care he needs, he needs constant supervision and he's up various times throihh the night, now waiting to see if he stays on high rate and gets mobility, all his reports make him meet the tests for high rate but I'm expecting low rate

@Persianpoppy ... any news ? X

No darling unfortunately 😭 xx

Matilde08 · 08/05/2024 19:32

Congrats to all who have been awarded today, looks like loads of decisions have been made 👏🏻
@Fee89 that's the plan. No matter how muc h I'm trying to put it back at my mind and just patently waiting... it's upsetting why another week pass by and nothing. I'm extremely happy for everyone who's awarded, but it triggers my anxiety extra with confusion what's wrong with my boys claim that we have been left to wait for so long and ask to wait even more. I will give a call but I don't think I will cope for another: still with case manager, still checking, wait for another week or even two. It's start to upset me as I start to feel does my little one is not eligible for that support just because he was a bit unlucky to lose his dad and now it's affecting him..us even more 😔 sorry, another emotional outburst

Hope your MR done sooner than you expecting 🫂❤️

Id be exactly the same as you, feeling everything your feeling. Yeah your happy for others but it just gets you that one step more angry and builds up your anxiety more. All totally normal to feel that way. I will be keeping eye out tomorrow for your update after you call. We all have our fingers crossed for you 💕🙏

Mommy2boys30 · 08/05/2024 21:41

So lovely seeing all the awards today 🎉 I'm hoping not too long now as they really are getting through January dates

Was hoping to get something through soonish but reading this today my hopes have been dashed as I need to get my car fixed as I’m walking 2 and a half miles each way to make sure my son is safe to and from school 😩

Garfield456 · 08/05/2024 23:33

@JodiexXXXx maybe give them a call and explain your situation to try and hurry it along, not sure if it will help but worth a try.

Scan date 16/1. One letter received still looking at claim on 8th week and 1 generic text on 29/4. Woke up this morning and we have back pay! Not sure of the rate. 😀

Offtopic · 09/05/2024 07:48

Morning!! Ok I’m joining in. I sent my form off and they acknowledged it was received 8th March. Got a letter yesterday saying I’ll receive decision in 15 weeks, reading the forum I guess it might be a bit longer.

I’ve already mucked up, I sent the first form off unsigned so had to fill out another one!

my daughter has finally been diagnosed with the severest form of dyspraxia. It’s just me and her and I hope I do get something so I can sign her up for swimming etc.
