Adding information after tax credit paperwork has gone in

When I ordered the working tax/child tax credit paperwork I explained to them my son was awarded high rate DLA and I was awarded carer's allowance after the financial year ended and how was I to put this on the form.

They told me to fill it out as if we got neither and once i'd sent it back to call them and update our circumstances. They have finally put the paperwork on the system however they've now told me I have to wait for it to be processed? before they can change/add anything to it.

Has anyone else done this or something alike and are we going to have to wait X amount of weeks for it to be decided, then them update the information and have to wait the same time frame all over again?

Wishing I'd enclosed a side note and proof of these benefits with the paperwork DOH I'll know next time.
