Hi all,
It should be added within 6 weeks of receiving your confirmation email. Please be aware the Ofgem deadline for making payments is the end of March 2019, but we're aiming to make them sooner than this.
If your application is currently in the process of being checked, this might take longer. We have to "validate" 5 to 10% of applications by asking for supporting documents from the DWP. This process can take 6 to 8 weeks too, after which you'll be sent information about the outcome.
Hope this helps,
Nancy

If you’ve been accepted for the Warm Home Discount, we’re aiming to get the payment to you within 6 weeks of the acceptance, just like last year! We do have until March 2020 to get the payments done, but I’m sure it’ll be sooner than that!
