Ibeen applying for pip of a numerous amount of years and it's only now that they've accepted me on pip after applying for the 7th time and I entitled for a back date from years ago

That's great news. Unfortunately, you will not be owed money from all those years ago. You will be owed money from the date you started your most recent claim.

Hi @ejay66, welcome to the community. It's good to hear that they've finally accepted your claim, it can be a real fight sometimes. As Poppy already said, unfortunately it's unlikely you'd get backpay in these circumstances.
I hope you'll enjoy being part of the community. If you have any more questions about anything please feel free to ask 😊
