gp report

my dla stops in august and ive reapplied and they have asked my gp for a report which they have received.Do you think that if the gp confirms my problems that will be enough for them or will it drag on for longer,im at my wits end with the wait.Also i keep ringing them asking if they have any news on the decision will this annoy them and effect the result?

It will depend how much is recorded in the GP report as to whether the DLA decision maker will request further information, in order to reach a decision on your claim. Unfortunately it is impossible to second-guess the proposed actions of the decision maker on the strength of the unknown details in the GP's report.

Although you are quite entitled to ring the DLA unit to enquire about the progress of your claim without causing annoyance, in all probabilities it will not speed up the progress of your claim, as there are a number of factors which could affect the progress, such as the gathering of evidence and the workload of the DLA unit.

that has put my mind at rest ..many thanks
