@Accbabymom1994 when you say you was hoping for hrm what criteria did you think he met and did you submit evidence x

My son doesn't walk for long and he doesn't have understanding, he just runs in the road , I'm picking him up most of the time, he doesn't look where he's going, I'm either dragging him or picking him up . Or he's in pushchair. I didn't send evidence I just wrote it down lol

Yes , original scan date 15th June 2023 , got decision MRC only in Nov 2023 then did a COC on 04/03 , got decision on Friday 21/06 for HRC and LRM which will start in August when he turns 5 . I am happy with this decision now , was hoping for HRM but he probably doesn't fit the criteria.

That’s amazing. I am in the same position as well COC. Can I ask what extra evidence you provided for HRC? x

Hey I just wrote everything down honestly, I didn't send anything extra with the COC , I also used the manual they send with the forms to answer the questions properly.

Just had a phone call from the DM asking why my form was 4 days late and I explained I was waiting for extra information. She said she's looking at the claim today and a decision will be made today and I should get a letter some time next week..
Anxiety has gone into overdrive now lol

Twinnies010920 · 25/06/2024 09:37

Just had an update to say its with a case manager and should have the decision by the end off this week but apprently theyve changed the policy and you cant request a text or ring for decision over the phone hes saying i can only call for an update over the phone if ive not recieved a letter through the post in 10-15 days. So not sure if its his way of saying its not looking good πŸ™ˆ

It's not overly bothered me too much so far. The past week my patience is frayed πŸ˜†
It's such a long wait 😩
I keep thinking now I didn't put enough information and my son won't be except. I couldn't cope with another wait on top!
I'm holding off until Monday 15weeks to call πŸ™ˆ
