@Yosma Hassan I couldn’t find a postcode! I sent it off free post do u think they’ll get it?
Yes try call them x
Oh! I think you needed to write the post code on it it was just this ' freepost DWP SSMG'
Here is the number from online to contact them as it says usually you should hear back in 28 days. 0800 169 0140
I’m worried that it’s got lost?? Because I just put the address on the envelope it said on the form but it was a weird address and I specifically asked my boyfriend to go in to the post office and ask the staff if it was okay but he just put it in the post box so god knows what happened to it 😩🫣
My husband put mine in post box too! Did you write the freepost DWP SSMG On it?
@Yosma Hassan yep that’s all I wrote on it as that’s all it said to write on the form and had no post code for it anywhere so I didn’t write anything else 😩 now it’s making me even more worried as it has definitely been 28 days since we posted it
@Dana that’s all you need to write on it. Mine went in the post box too. I think it took about 4-5 weeks to hear back but then got payment pretty quick. Best to give them a call I think to be sure
I also have a question!! I would like to apply for this and on the form it asks for my baby’s father details.. we are not together anymore and I don’t have the NI number for example, does anyone know what to fill?
@Lidia just leave them blank that’s what I did as my baby’s dad left me
I heard back from them within 10 days and got the grant 15 days after I sent the papers of, defo contact them!
Hey! What song you Try call them? I've sent my form on Friday, using the free post and postcode but I'm worried about the same thing
