Hi :)

i have a question about pip so I received a text yesterday saying that I’ve been awarded yay! I applied for pip in the past for my neurological condition but I did not get it. I didn’t appeal either, I just gave up. This was in jan 2020 and now my recent claim started in September 2022. Will I be back dated payment from 2020 or will it just be when I recently made a claim 

thank you so much☺️

    Hi and welcome to the community 

    You will only be backdated to start of new claim as it is a new claim and new decision

    Hello @yazzz and great news on being awarded PIP, as Jane has mentioned, this will be backdated from the start of your new claim in 2022. 

    Just to help other members find your post and share their thoughts, I've moved it over into our PIP category. Please do ask if we can help with anything else :)
