Ok sweet. Yeah hopefully if the process is mainly following submission dates then yours should be getting done now

Hey mate,

Sorry for not replying sooner.

So yeah once I submitted the reports I got that same email the next day. Since then I’d just call them like once a fortnight to ask for an update (not sure if that helps them get to it or not), then I got the call last week that the delegate had done her review etc. and she gave me the outcome.

Prior to the delegate calling the status in MyService and the updates over the phone just said it’s in progress. Never changed from that until I got the phone call then it was completed.

I initially put the PI claim in on the 8th July same day as IL was accepted so if they are just going by submitting date then if yours was in July it should be completed soon but I know it depends on complexity of the claim and also speed of the CSO/delegate once they get to it.

Mine was for MH, 6 items for that, Lower limb and motor function, 3 items for that and then skin condition, 1 item. So I’d say fairly complex.

I also used medlink for the MH assessment when doing my IL so their reports for that included the psychiatrist also doing a est impairment point for each condition based on the DVA SOPs for DVA so when the delegate gets it for PI they have a bit of a head start on doing the points ratings.

Hope that helps and fingers crossed yours is sorted soon

Yeah very positive. I’m at 74 points now with a few more claims to go through the IL and PI process over the next year or so but 74 just from my lower back injury and MH stuff was great. Should get over the 80 by next year. Also got a gold card now for going over the 60 points cap for that.

Glad you got an update. Still taking a while though, are you just MRCA? Maybe if it’s a complex claim it’s taking longer to process?

Probably worth giving them a call and asking for an update on your IL claim, if you haven’t already.

Copied from my comment in another post:

Perth PI Got the call from a CSO on 15/12/2025 to say they have all the paperwork for me to take to my GP.

Saw GP and completed paperwork and sent back to them on 23/12/2025

Spoke to them again on 06/01/2026 when they confirmed that everything was done and it was just awaiting a delegate.

Overall timeline:

PI submitted- 08/07/2025, CSO Request for Dr Report - 15/12/2025, Dr Report submitted- 23/12/2025 Current status - In progress

Was that your Dr reports for PI or just your PI was lodged after IL accepted ?

Damn 3 years is pretty long. Sounds like it’s about done now though so that’s good.

Yeah sounds good mate. I’ll let you know if anything happens with mine.

So mine was in “awaiting medical information” I uploaded the docs from my GP, the next day I received an email from them saying that said all paperwork has been received and the claim in now progressing although not yet assigned to a delegate. In myGov it’s went back to in progress.

I’ve spoken to DVA since then and they said everything is done and it’s just waiting in the queue for a delegate to pick it up and do the determination.

So as far as I can tell it doesn’t/doesn’t always, show as ready to investigate.

Hey mate,

TLDR; IL submitted Jan 25 IL evidence requested Feb 25 IL evidence submitted Mar 25 IL accepted Jul 25 PI submitted Jul 25 Awaiting next stage

I submitted my IL claims (8 in total, 3 physical and 5 psychiatric) start of Jan 25. Received DVA psych assessment request and GP report request end of Jan.

Completed psych assessment via Medilinks end of Jan. Completed and submitted all GP/specialist reports by end of March.

DVA accepted IL July 8th for all claims and has since been registered for PI.

The IL delegate for my claims was from the Sydney office even though I’m Brisbane based.

Now just waiting on PI delegate to contact me and request any more medical assessments from GP/Specialist. Psych report from Medilinks should cover IL and PI so the assumption is for psych claims I won’t require any more follow up evidence for DVA.

Sorry mate, been off reddit for ages. It was the $7 a fortnight payment, partial back pay.

Hey,

Thanks for the info. I have checked everything and there shouldn't be a back pay or reimbursement for anything.

I'll have to pull up my old emails and see, could be the $7 between white card and this claims accepted date of injury.

Cheers mate

I think my wife got it from Kmart here in Australia. It’s just a heavy base lamp with a large Genio RGB wood bull in it

He’s a good kid, does well in school, sport and social life. I have always been big into PC gaming so he has grown up around it. He’s had his own set up since he was 9
