Hi l321,

It is not the medical condition that makes it more or less likely that a claimant will receive an award of DLA.

It is the claimants limitations/disabilities/needs, as a result of the medical condition that must fulfill the DLA qualifying criteria.

A claimant must have suffered from said limitations/disabilities/needs, for 3 months prior to the claim and be expected to suffer for at least another 6 months after the claim.

Have a look at our extensive DLA claims guides, that are accessed through the orange MEMBERS ONLY area on the left.

If you then have any general questions, please return to the forum.
