deciding officer

Hi, I wonder if anyone could tell me - I applied for carers allowance on the 28 April 2015 and have heard nothing yet!

Are you on SWA while your waiting?

Yes I am, it seems a long time, surely they would write and inform me if that was the delay. I rang again and a lady said the Do was on leave but is back now. Thanks for taking the time to answer.
