    Hi @blightycufc and welcome ......Not getting an answer from DLA does not mean your daughter has been refused DLA . There is a huge backlog at this time .
    I think your best bet is to give them a phone and speak to someone directly . 
    Please have all your your information( and your daughters information)  in front of you when you phone , good luck ....and please let us know how you get on ?

    Hi and welcome I would imagine they haven’t made a decision yet as even if refused you would have been notified give them a call as advised

    Rewarded? Do you mean they are going to continue to pay the DLA until a decision's made on the PIP?
