    As you transferred from DLA there's no money owed. You will receive 1 final payment of DLA and then your first PIP payment will be about 3/4 weeks later, so first PIP payment will be about 7 weeks after the decision was made.

    No, you are not owed any money. Even though you didn't have the care part of DLA you were still claiming DLA, which you transferred from. For this reason there's no money owed.
