DLA WAIT TIMES THREAD 72

[megan345]

NC - NEW CLAIM
COC - CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES
MR - MANDATORY RECONSIDERATION
SD - SCAN DATE

Does anyone have any idea were they are with the dates for MR? X

Mines 28/2 called Friday and said it’s with a decision maker and to call back Monday to see if there is an update.
the wait is draining it really is

Im glad it's not just me who feels this way. I feel mentally drained. I just need to know one way or another! I don't know if I can go through the stress of calling again as when I called Tuesday it was over an hour! And if I get told it's with a DM (it wasnt tuesday) it will make my anxiety even worse. So I think im just gonna wait it out now.. it's so hard though!! Hope you get some good news. You should hear by Tuesday i reckon! Xx

Think around the 3rd/4th December as I’m the 3rd and mines went to decision maker on Thursday. I’m gonna call them tomorrow at 9 hopefully mines has an update xx

Hi is it new claim or mr

New claim chick -
taken about the same time as my other sons last year to get to a decision maker

I’m just fed up of the waiting it’s like they haven’t got a system in place at all

im just hoping when I call tomorrow that they don’t say it’s not with a decision maker as I’ve saw a few posts that have said this as well

This is a worry of mine too! I’ve seen them tell people it’s with a decision maker and they say it’s not the next time they call.

I have two claims with same scan date 26/2 (twins) I feel the mental drain of waiting for this response is sometimes even worse than the mental drain of looking after twins who can’t walk or talk

Aww I know it’s hard isn’t it trying to be patient but when we know that our children need all the help and support it’s hard not to try and call them and ask for updates.

my son doesn’t walk very well he’s 8 and I wasn’t aware that I could apply for him until the school sendco and the hospital told me to try and see what happens as it would help him out massively as he doesn’t walk very well on the pathway to be assessed for adhd and has sensory processing disorder he’s like a whirlpool of fireworks literally even with the pain he’s in with his legs as they’re constantly stiff and he has very little range of movement in them he still tries to keep up with everyone else but the pain stops him all the time a 30 minute walk takes us over an hour and he stops all the time and has to sit down and take breaks constantly

im hoping you get the decision you’re babies need and I have my fingers crossed for you

Fingers crossed for you and that your little one gets what he deserves ❤️

Good luck to everyone today, 🤞🏼 xx

Good luck everyone new week praying for lots of positive outcomes for everyone x
@Lmtab please do MR your baby deserves it you sent in so much evidence just ended up with a shitty DM who probably didn’t read have the evidence I know the wait is long but see it as you have nothing to lose and everything to gain once it’s looked at again don’t give up you got this xx

Hi all. Does anyone know what date they are currently up to for COC please? Thank you x

Thank you ♥️

I think @megan345 scan date for COC is 29/11 and she hasn’t heard anything yet. I’m not sure there’s many COC on this forum. What’s your scan date? Mines 8/4 for coc

hey! yes nothing yet here, debating whether to call or just leave it till friday since i’ve badgered them enough🤣xx

Awww thank you. I am 18/12 for COC. The wait is getting worse every day 😫

Same SD as me 18/12 😔😔 wait is killing me x

Aww the same! It’s horrible isn’t it 😫have you called at all? I did a few weeks ago and was given the it takes 25 weeks reply. I was going to ring today but seeing people from November still waiting im wondering if there’s any point x

Call hopefully it’s been done over the weekend, good luck xx

Awww you are still waiting 😫you’ve had such a long wait 😫x

@Gemini000 @Betsy93 are you 2 calling today xx

it’s killing me now, i’m so anxious for my little boy, just want to know, even if its not awarded differently at least i can know to put in an MR etc, the not knowing is the worst xx

@Lmtab my son went from total decline to HRC from MR! Please don’t give up, it’s a long wait but it will worth it! Wishing you all the best xx

I was thinking too.. are you all?x
