Pip award this morning.

So I had My text this morning saying I'd been awarded. Very fast process. Assesment was the 26th July. Sent forms back 3 and a half weeks before that and text award this morning.

Called the auto line. Was told I was being laid 549£ on the 30th August.

Question is... am I expecting a backpayment before the 30th or am I just expecting a payment on the 30th?

Hey there @looking4help and welcome.

Sorry for the late reply and apologies that no one had been able to answer your question.
FIrstly, congratulations on your award, that must be a huge relief?
As far as payments go, back payments are usually paid in separately from your regular monthly payments.

Congratulations looking4help. I think they backdate it to the time you requested it.
