pip and esa

[milo25]

hi if you are taking pip to a tribual and win do you get it backdated and your esa too

The tribunal should provide you with a written decision notice and this should also be sent to the DWP. The DWP must then change its decision and pay you the arrears for what they owe you. There is sometimes a short delay in this happening but it shouldn't be more than a week or so. I suggest you contact the PIP office on 0800 917 2222 and check they are processing the new decision.

The new PIP decision might have a positive effect on your other benefits such as employment and support allowance and housing benefit. Generally, it is good practice to tell all of the other offices involved in your benefits about the new decision.

No this is statement is incorrect you have the right to claim backdated pip but only up to 3 months and that's 3x 28 day months.

[BigT1973]

You can claim up to 3 months back dated and that's at their discretion it's not a 100% guarantee that you will get any back dated money at all.
