NHS waiting time after sending ID?

Hi,

After an unsuccessful private round of ivf, we've now received the application for funding request from the NHS. We've sent our prood of address/ID, along with eligibility forms etc. All our tests were done privately so we skipped that part luckily... Just wondering if anyone knew how long the wait is from here? A couple of months? Half a year? Longer? I know all areas are different but we had such a bad experience with the private clinic we really want to try NHS next time. They only do one round where we are so we don't want to wait for ages! Any guidance useful and appreciated. Thanks x

We are being transferred (we can have 1 round) on the nhs and interested in waiting times too.

Can I ask where and why you had a bad experience privately? Have you opted for a different clinic with the nhs funded ivf?

Not what you're looking for?
