DLA WAIT TIMES THREAD 45

[Matilde08]

💗🤞🏻💐

Im going to call today just not sure if I should wait till later, I really hope they have made a decision 🤞🏼

I have the same scan date and haven't heard anything yet

They don't rush so I'm not banking onit lol.. even when you ring up They tell you different things lol.. what will be will be I guess 🙄😊

Whats your thoughts in when we will.

Am thinking probably next week

Good luck when you do call, I would imagine they probably made it on Friday but if you call after lunch it always gives them the morning to do it if they haven’t already

They take forever. Majority of people have been told it goes to decision maker around 15 weeks - which would be beginning of July for you, then upto 5 weeks from that but most seem to know by 18 weeks. I'm 15 weeks today today so potentially another 5 week wait

See it’s been with the DM for 2 weeks so they should of made a decision now 🫠

@wonderfullife1 I'm hoping next week cause we are 15 weeks Wednesday and they say it goes to a DM at 15 weeks, I'm going to phone Friday I think x

Answered alot quicker than expected. Not even with DM. Have to wait. Oh well, worth a try. Not gonna call now till next week. Good luck everyone 😘

From going through this end of last year, DM's get given a pile of cases at the same time but can sit on their desks for weeks, if they have a holiday booked or off sick etc, the cases don't get reassigned, just stay with them until they get through them. Plus if they get any priorities through, they have to sort them first. Which is why it's said 5 weeks from being passed to a DM.

Scan date 21/2 still waiting to hear will be 16 weeks this weds the wait is just so long. I’ll keep you posted if I hear i really don’t want to call as I called last week and was told shouldn’t be much longer.

They are probably still on 16/2 but some with that date have been processed. They've updated on here, you should be done very very soon 😀

Scan date 20/02
Just called and they said its still waiting to be assigned to a dm so should hopefully get an answer this week

My scan date is also march 20th, we'll anxiously wait it out together haha xx

I’m on the 12/2 still waiting 😥

Are you a priority application? That is super quick!!

I've just posted the acceptance onto the neurodiversity pathway letter to them on recorded but I haven't put his reference or anything on it literally put it in a envelope 🫣 what can I do? Will they still link it to his claim? As they were expecting the letter as I told them I was sending it. Arrrrggghhhhhhhhh stressed dot com overhere now. Ffs I always do stuff like this 🥲

They just do what they please no thought on the stress it's causing us.. hopefully you here something soon 🤞🏻

If it's got his name on or your address I'm sure it will find it's way to your claim.. if you just posted it you can quickly pop to post office it should still be there explain they might be able to let you stick his details on envelope if you have receipt.. this is something I would do 🫣

No, im not a priority application. I think it will still be a long wait!

Keep us updated! They're doing the claims in all sorts of orders so i wouldn't be surprised x

I called and they made a decision on the 7th, he’s been awarded higher rate 🫶🏻

He’s been awarded Higher rate ! 🫶🏻

yay Congratulations 🙌

@CaitlinAmy12 congrats!
