Child now receives DLA

Universal Credit (UC)

So I received a decision on Monday regarding my child DLA application which has the outcome of being successful. I’ve updated my child’s details on UV and have also made a request for the change to be backdated from when the application was made.

There’s been a note on my journal today that it’s just waiting to be verified and then a request for a back payment will be taken to a decision maker.

This is my first time doing something like this has anyone got a rough idea when this will be completed please. I know back payments can take a while sometimes. The DLA claim was around 3 months for a back date.
