Hi dear,sorry i have no advise but i really do empathise with you.

Am not sure if this will help🤷‍♀️ but i think once your local CCG has approved the funding it will be anytime from now.Best wishes on your journey x

Has your CCG been approved yet?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

What is ccg?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

CCGs is the one who will approve or not your NHS funding for the IVf. Google CCG NHS find the number of your local CCG maybe yours is taking due this haven't been approved 🤔

I mean I paid part payment for husband in April because he is not eligible for nhs

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

If your husband is not eligible for NHS how can you be then.

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Eligibility criteriaEach Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) has different criteria which will have to be taken into account before considering funding your treatment.

Funding for assisted conception may not be available if:

●either you or your partner already has children

●the female partner is over a certain age or has a BMI over 29

●you have already had NHS funded treatment.

So if your husband is not eligible, maybe you aren't too.

Hope it helps you

Thanks for the reply, I've been told I am eligible, I paid for husband, got call they will start soon, still waiting been 2 months since the call

You and your husband have had the first appointment already? I think that the next step for you now is the appointment.

Not yet, basically waiting for appointment, taking too long
