I got my letter well into the third week from the date it arrived with them. Do you know the date yours arrived?

I didn't get my letter confirming they'd received it until gone 3 weeks after they did, it's normal to not hear anything for a while, don't panic 😊 xx

I posted my sons off 15/04 and still haven’t had confirmation. Only know it’s there as I rang but I’d sent it special delivery too x

I didn’t hear back for a while then got 2 letters at once and not heard back since 🙄

Hi, I sent mine 10/5 with the free post envelope, I’ve still not heard anything, called Wednesday and it still hasn’t been scan on they said there is a back log of scanning new claims on

UsefulZombie · 02/06/2024 19:12

Sending everyone super positive vibes for the week ahead 🙏🙏🙏

Can anyone explain the text thing to me? My scan date is 21/02 and thus far I've had two letters, no text. What does the text message mean in terms of timings etc? Thank you

I have seen some people get awarded care and mobility to start when they are 5 when they apply near 5th birthday im hoping this happens to us 🤞🙏

I think we'll have to do the form again, with him not turning 5 for 6 months it's a long time for things to change x

I reckon you'll get a letter soon. It's very hit and miss though. However, I was about to check they'd not lost mine when the letter came, so in your shoes I'd call to check. 9am is a good time, if you can.

Freepost seems to make scanning low priority for some reason. It's odd.

I think it's a bit random with regard to the texts. I got my first text on 20th May at 14 weeks but haven't heard anything since. I'm 16 weeks tomorrow.

Thank you. Mysterious! Hope you hear very soon 🙏

The more the weeks pass the more I'm doubting everything I've written in the form is enough. Anxiety making me doubt myself keep thinking I've forgot something

Same here . Although I took copies of my forms before sending them and I didn’t even write his hypermobility or his panic disorder diagnosis on them 🤦🏻‍♀️
