Usually they will ring you before to check that u r in and not at tots groups, etc.
Although They have been known at times to just turn up!!!

Good Luck, its not as bad as you think its gonna be!! :thumbsup:

At least you have a bit of warning to make sure all your paperwork is up to date

They rang me on the Monday ,asked what days i minded,had groups and said they would come on 1 of the days that i had no groups told me if she was not here by 10.30 she was not comming that day,prefer not to say what exact day there comming so they see you in enviroment that you are normally in. Good luck

I had my call about Novemeber and they visited in January. I know a few people in my area who have been told an exact date and time that they would be visited. I thought this wasnt usual but has happened to several cms in my area (I did too but only had ds with me the day the came).

Good luck probably be a few more weeks yet but sure you will be fine.:clapping:
