... did you have to wait before receiving an answer? and then before getting the money on your account?
It's taking ages for me :evil:
 
it was a couple of weeks then i had to fill something else in as they needed more info. Then it was a week or so. xx
 
It depends.

When did you request a start date to recieve payments?

I sent mine off in advance to start having it 11 weeks before LO arrived (was the earliest I could claim from). They had a backlog so I never got anything until 7 weeks before LO was due and the first payment was backdated and therefore I had 4 weeks in one go.

Give them a call and see where they are with yours.
 
I asked for the payments to be made from February 17th, which was the earliest I could claim (probably like you Sherlock as our due dates are the same :wink: ) and sent everything in February. But some documents were apparently missing :? and they sent me everything back! I then had to start everything again and make a new claim (keeping the same date for the payments) which they received on April 1st. I called them last week and they said they had a huge backlog and were still examining claims from February :shock: That's why I was starting to get a bit concerned... It will probably be backdated as it was for you but in the meantime I miss the money they owe me :evil:
 
its been 12 weeks since i put my claim in and ive had nothing yet...apart from a few snotty bitches when chasing my claim up...thats when i actually get through
 
:shock: This has made me really panic now! :shock: I've been trying to process my claim, but I'm STILL waiting for the SMP1 form from my temp agency to send off with my claim. (Have chased them 7 times in 2 weeks :roll: and have just said I should have it by the end of this week)

If I end up in the same boat as you guys, and judging by the backlog I will do, I won't be able to pay my rent without income?! :cry:
