Perhaps give them a call.
I did and they said they have a huge number of claims I will receive a letter when my claim is processed they can’t even give me a time frame of how long it will take

At least your form is in and will be processed.
It could be days or it could be months,it will get proceeded and any monies due will be back dated.
Yeah I’m just worrying as I have no income at all at the moment
Back in my day in da 80s there was a health officer from your local health centre who dealt with paying emergency funds while waiting on a claim. I'm not sure what the equivalent is now but I'd probably start there if I was penniless.
This is what elcato is referring too:
