What happens if not heard from Doctor before end of claim?

My DLA claim runs out in Mid Feb and just had letter yesterday saying they have asked my Doctor for a report so just wanted to know what happens if mid Feb comes and they still have not heard back with the report?

Does my payments stop or will they carry on till they hear back from Doctor?

As I said in the answer to the other thread you started on the same subject. Call your Doctor and tell them to expect the letter.

Yes the payment will stop if they havent made a decision by the date of the expiery of your claim.

for future reference it always a good idea to inform GP when a claim or reclaim is sent in.

Once I knew my Doctor had been sent a form I phoned up the surgery and asked if it had been received.

I was due an appointment with my GP to review my meds and during the appointment we discussed the form - turned out that she had been wanting to ask me some questions anyway. Might be worth your while doing likewise, at least then you know your Doc has done it.
