    Heya @Kelz97 and welcome to the community!

    Congratulations on your LCWRA award, that must be a huge relief? I believe that back pay should be from three months after you originally handed in the first fit note, though some courts may do it from the date of the appeal decision. They'll end you a letter to let you know either way.

    No problem at all @Kelz97 I'm glad they've got in touch and it's mostly understood. ❤️Benefits are such a minefield, it's tricky keeping up!
