I just phoned and they said oh just leave a journal message...

Hi im currently waiting on a coc. My son is getting referred to a gastroenterologist in a completely different hospital hours away. Do I need to inform dla. Thanks

I ended up phoning aswell they said they would leave a message on my account for the payment team and as soon as I got off the phone there was a message on my journal saying they've looked at it and it's still with a dm and there's no time frame and to just wait for a decision! I thought it was very coincidental that it was the exact second I put the phone down a message came up literally to the second! I wonder how long they'll keep us waiting!

Wow a 7 year award aswell that’s amazing! I hope I get something like that I’m so fed up of filling forms out and waiting for decisions. I was thinking I would get a decision about October time but you have given me abit of hope it may get done in 3 weeks time now, well here’s to hoping 😂

Have you called today, I hope you get the news you want x

06/03 here. still waiting. getting more impatient but I have to remind myself that some are waiting longer than us. Hopefully we'll get decisions and hopefully a good one too. Good luck to everyone waiting and Congratulations to everyone awarded xx

I’m currently on hold waiting for someone to answer! My son’s dyspraxia diagnosis report has arrived on email today. I want to know if I’ve still got time to send it in especially as it’s £5.50 each time for recorded delivery, or if it’s already with a decision maker eek - NC SD 13/03

Hi guys just wondering how long did your back pay take to reach your bank after being told you were awarded x

Positive Post.

NC scan date 16/04/25
No letter, no text, backpay this morning!
Super quick, 10 weeks!!!.
So so pleased for my child especially as I made a claim a year ago and both that claim and my MR were declined. Decided to reapply and just wow.

Good luck everyone

Takes 3-5 working days but l was awarded on Tuesday got mine on Friday l would say 3 days. x

I was awarded Wednesday I got the text around 1pm I'm thinking probably Monday 🤔
