Good news. Whether you're entitled to SDP will depend on which ESA you're claiming and who you live with?

Are you claiming Income Related ESA?

Do you live alone or with other adults?

jasoncraig83

With my dad and get income related ESA

Thanks for sharing your good news @jasoncraig83, I'm pleased to hear you've won your appeal, that must be a big relief

Then you'll only be entitled to Severe disability premium if your dad is either claiming a qualifying disability there self such as PIP daily living, DLA mid high rate care or Attendance Allowance or they are registered blind. If none of those apply to him then you will not be entitled to SDP.

jasoncraig83

Yeah my dad is claiming pip.how do I get it please or will I get it automatically?

jasoncraig83

I'm very happy thankyou everyone.just waiting game now as they owe me 16 months of backdated payment the judge said.

Aww congratulations I'm so happy for you and so should you.

You'll need to wait until your PIP award is in payment. Once it is ring ESA to ask to claim the SDP and fill out the form over the phone. It's a very straight forward form and shouldn't take any longer than about 10 minutes. Once a decision is made you will be contacted.

Does your dad claim any means tested benefits like Income Related ESA/JSA, Income Support or Pension credit? If so and no one claims carers allowance or carers element of UC for looking after him then he will also be entitled to the SDP.

Think my dad get pip and universal credit.thankyou just got email saying I will receive a letter b4 April 3rd.im getting 17 months back pay so around 10k.most I've ever had in my bank was 1k when worked at petrol station long time ago

It depends on if you owe debt to DWP. If you don't then you will usually be paid 3-5 days after being awarded, if you do owe money, it can take a lot longer, because the Debt Management need to recieve payment before you will get any owed backdated money. My sister had to wait 2 months although I don't know how common that is.

jasoncraig83

No don't owe any money to anyone was told Friday that I'm getting it but as it was weekend might take longer

jasoncraig83

Thankyou wasn't sure because it's a large amount it might take longer.

It shouldn't matter how large the backpayment, my hubby got a call off the DM saying he'd been awarded and had it 3 days later, it was a lot of money. It depends whether there is an upcoming weekend. Hopefully you should get it wednesday- Friday.

As this is a Tribunal decision then it can take up to about 8 weeks, sometimes longer.

I didn't realise it was a tribunal decision, like poppy stated...she's correct it could take longer.

Random question.does pip backdated payment go in at midnight normally or can it go in during the day?

poppy123456

Payments don't usually go in through the day, unless it's a fast payment. BACS payments usually clear in the early hours. For my bank it's usually around 3am.

jasoncraig83

Thankyou I did think that as my ESA goes in at midnight

jasoncraig83

Sorry for all these questions lol.is it true pip will phone me for details like have I been in hospital or prison.someone they phone few days after appeal win?
