    The limited threads we’ve had here regarding ADP there are long delays. No harm in ringing SSS to ask for an update.

    Hi @Harvey11, as Poppy says we don't know as much about ADP as we do about PIP. What we do know though is that the backlog is very long unfortunately.

    Hi, see the following as a guide….it states 3 to 4 months as the average case transfer timescale but as you are experiencing it is taking longer.
    I would get in touch with them, it can’t hurt.
