How long did you wait for your DLA decision?

Specifically on your initial application?
I've only waited 3 weeks but am getting restless already!

If I remember correctly after you send in your DLA forms you receive a letter that they have received them. On that letter it says if you haven't heard anything after 8 weeks to phone them.

If you are concerned telephone them and ask what the situation is with your claim.

I think the standard time is about 11/12 weeks.

Jeepers creepers - didn't know it took that long. I applied for my son years ago and it took less than a month - must've got lucky that time!

10 days for a first timer is pretty impressive. I won't stop watching my letterbox just in case!

Mine is after 4 days !!!! in 1992. (award for lifetime - nothing turn me down)

I heard this year onwards is lots worse to wait so long approx 12-16 weeks !!!!

I must be lucky in 1992.

You may well have another 10/11 weeks to wait,have they written to say they have received the application,and if you gave details of your GP for medical report have you let him know to expect a request from the DLA?
