How long does it take for the Sure Start Grant??


Evening ladies
I applied for the sure start maternity grant on the 31st March, well, that was when I posted the letter so they would have received it on Monday 2nd April.
I know I qualify for it so I'll definitely get it but was just wondering if any ladies have had theirs yet and if so, how long did it take to come through?
Do they send you a letter to sat they will be paying you on a specific date or do I just keep checking my bank balance lol?

Quite a difference between all of you so far then lol. 7 weeks to 10 days.
Wonder why it takes them so long with some and not with others ???

I'll just keep checking my bank, after the bank holidays that is!
I'm excited for it as I can hopefully buy most of the little things like nappies and wipes and things like that. I'm so unprepared right now! Getting a bit worried. Just hope I do get it!

If you reeeeally want to know you can also call them and they will be able to tell you the date the money will be going into your account (as long as they've processed it)
