DLA WAIT TIMES THREAD 50

[HangryLimeBeaker]

Making a new thread as other one is getting full, come join the wait and drop your scan date 💜

still anxiously waiting, 16/04. 💕

Are you supposed to ask for the scan date? And if so, when?

I didn't get one
If i hadn't called, I wouldn't have found out anything until I got the payment

Did you tick the box on your form requesting a text? I know some people tick the box and still don’t receive one 🤔

Glad I’m not the only one mines the 11-04

I did but I’ve had not texts whatsoever

I can't remember sorry!

Scan date 24th June got a letter today dated 11th August saying they are looking at the claim and can take upto 15 weeks.

Oh im glad to hear that thank you 🩷 and no need to thank me i just want to support everyone who has supported me and be here to congratulate and celebrate others who get awarded to , its such a stressful thing to go through so just want to continue to offer my support as i cant thank everyone enough on this post enough for their support x

Congratulations lovely im soo happy you have been awarded for your little girl 🥰🎉🎉

Seen a few with my scan date been awarded on Facebook 17/04.. so nervous now, I’m going to call tomorrow and ask for them to text me once a decision has been made. Good luck all!! Congratulations to those who have been awarded.

Congratulations did you get a text tonight? Or was it today

snap ! Same scan date 17:04 although Mine is a clerical case and when I last called they told me I could be waiting up to 25weeks for National insurance number for my son to release DLA payment😖pregnant and hoping that God is working to make this as fast as possible so my son can get what he needs before baby is born . The stress is overwhelming

Good morning everyone, woke up this morning with back pay in my account scan date 16/04! Looks like MRC (as he is only 4)! No official diagnosis of ASD, I did sent some reports from SALT and local authority. Good luck to everyone who is waiting and congratulations to all the people that have been awarded recently! X

Congratulations ☺️
Our scan date is 18/04 so hopefully we'll have some positive news next week 🤞🏻

SD 19/04
I just rang and the guy said it’s in the final queue for a decision but because it’s been so long he’d push it into the first queue. And I should hear next week. Never heard that before but I’ll take it 🤣
I’m not going to ring again now I don’t think, just wait it out.

16/04 - seen all the awards so called again, was awarded on wednesday no text or backpay, only called monday and they said call back in september so does all depend on who u get on the phone, goodluck all

So happy this morning! My girl has been awarded! Scan date was 16/04 and went to a decision maker Tuesday morning. Woke up to backpay in the bank! Didn't receive a text. My calculations say MC and LM but the letter will confirm all when it arrives!

Good luck to everyone still waiting. xx

Scan date 08/04
Just called decision made Monday and we got declined x

Oh no 😟 I'm so sorry.. please do an MR.. it's absolutely gut wrenching to wait all of this time, then to get declined, you must be so upset, and as hard as it is, don't give up hope, and keep fighting x

Maybe not enough evidence or not detailed enough on forms? is it possible you can send more in ready for MR? So sorry to hear that x

Congratulations on all the awards guys 💜

I didn't have evidence, all i have now are the forms where I've applied for an adhd assessment with right to choose via the gp. Their reasons seem to be because he doesn't have 1 to 1 help at school and is in mainstream school. I don't have any school evidence and the school are not interested in him as he isn't obvious compared to others. He masks well at school isn't naughty just talks alot and is told off for that really. He copes at school but home is a different story. I do everything for him, wash him, dress him, constantly tell him to wash his hands, bath him etc. If I didn't he would sit in his pants all day! They said he has no extra care needs - he is 9. He can't tie laces, I have to get pull on trousers he can't so buttons. They don't chamge at school for pe we send them in their pe kits on pe days. I can't give them any evidence for school. Mayb it's not worth it

@Mummy142 that's really frustrating i'm sorry you haven't been listened to. i hate where they give "in a mainstream school" as a reason. even with a diagnosed child it's incredibly difficult to get them in a specialist school... wasn't it on the news a few weeks ago how there's literally no spaces? also frustrating the school aren't helping. i hope you get the answers you're looking for with the adhd assessment x

Sounds like my girl she masks at school as well I’m waiting as well shes has got a diagnosis of autism and a massive report which I sent but my scan date was 11-04 and I’m thinking now it’s a decline which if it is I will fight it all the way I’ve been to tribunal before with my older daughter and won don’t give up I think sometimes they don’t read it tbh
