DLA when to return was created by Rosered
I have just received my renewal claim form for DLA today, the renewal date is the 12th of December, I have not yet had a date about ESA. What would be the best time to return the completed form?

Should it be as soon as possible or a month before it is due. I am on higher rate DLA but the way things are going with the Government and ATOS I am not confident that I will retain that.

If they change your DLA, and there is no reason to assume they will :) then your rates will change as soon as the Decision is made, so sending it closer to the renewal date would be to your advantage.
