    I emailed last Wednesday and got a response today that current wait times are “8-9 weeks or so”

    Received a letter this morning. Ive been awarded however calculations incorrect, they never took my maintenance disregard into account against rent (€1500) a month. However they did include a request for rent info (however i already sent all this) to be marked for the attention of the deciding officer. Ill email as it gives his details. Im relieved I will be at least getting something while the balance is being sorted. Ive been awarded WFP from the Thursday after i started work. I see some people were confused if it was from application received or processed.

    Does anyone know how long it takes to add a new baby onto my claim? I have sent 3 emails with no reply yet.

    Just over 9 weeks. Said on the letter I would be paid today, didnt receive anything. I hope you hear soon. Do you have a TD that could enquire on your behalf? Their offices are usually v quick to get a response

    Does anyone know if you can check the WFP status online like you can with the medical card, emailed them and still waiting on a reply, the waiting time is becoming a joke now!! Also does anyone know if you get rejected do you still get a letter to say this as I'm waiting over 10 weeks now?

    I don’t think you can unfortunately.. I’m sure they would have to inform you either way I got a letter last week requesting more payslips so I registered post them and they received it today so I’m hoping to hear soon

    Thanks, hubby got his granted and paid two weeks ago but didn't get it back paid.
    The letter said his payments would be from the 25th July and his first payment went in on the 5th of September but only the amount he will get each week.

    I got a reply to my email from two weeks ago today saying the current wait time for new applications is 5-6 weeks. Here’s hoping!

    I was lucky i got it all together but it did state on letter that back dated money owed can be paid at any other time 🙄

    Can I ask,I know if you change to a new employer you need to notify & Start a new claim, and your current claim ends, but there is no way with 5 kids we will survive on my husbands new wages while our claim is approved.
    We haven’t got his payslip yet,as he only started his new job but could the CWo help until the claim is approved? Especially as some of you have been waiting a very long time and it’s coming up to Xmas
