You will be awarded from the day you applied so all Payments will be backdated. Well done 👍

Hi YMP.

I had to reapply 9months ago for PiP & twice they've sent a text.1st was a text to say they have my paper work this was in January this year & the 2nd was 6 months later to say they still were processing my forms & my current award ends in late January so if they want me to jump through hoops & do back flips they're cutting it fine & I think I will give them the rest of this month & then chase them as they're supposed to give me notice 3 months before end date of previous award.

Keep an eye on your Bank account, sometimes you get paid before you get the letters.
