Yes still waiting, I was hoping it would all be much quicker purely because of how quick everything went at the start.
Really hope all the waiting is worth it. 9 weeks from claim date!Shady. -
sdoc94 said:Can ANYONE from Northern Ireland please share their experiences of rough waiting times after assessment for a decision. My assessment was 18 days ago - I know its not overly long but im going crazy with worry!!
I thought that the decision would be much quicker but it doesn’t seem so. Here is her timetable
Thurs 11 Jan DfC acknowledges receipt
Two weeks later received confirmation that it would be a PBA
Monday 12 March receive text from DfC that they have received the HP report with a guideline of about 4 weeks for decision to be made. That’s been our timescale
From my inquiries elsewhere; here in NI they won’t give you the HP report until after you’ve received notification as to whether your claim has been successful. Seemly this is wrong but you know our wee country likes to do things our own way
