    It can be anything up to 8 weeks to pay what they owe and the same time to put your award into payment. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    I did advise that it can be up to 8 weeks. Before they pay what they owe you they will contact you to ask if you’ve been in prison or hospital, which is standard questions after a Tribunal win. 

    As for part payment, if you owe them any money they can use the money they owe
    you to pay it back. 

    Otherwise you will receive what they owe you in one payment. Though it has been known for them to ask if you could manage a lump sum or if you would like it to be paid in instalments.
