Hi, I have been waiting since February and have been paying back
Money back dated since November.
All this because I’m a carer who’s disabled and made to claim
Universal credit which meant they made me claim LCWRA.
The tribunal MJ V DWP deemed it unlawful, even so I’m still waiting.
I have put below what a decision maker wrote to me.
My question is, is this another delay tactic or am I getting 
Somewhere?.

“I am the Decision Maker working on your mandatory reconsideration. We are aware of the Upper Tier Tribunal ruling and are currently waiting for guidance from policy & legal to ensure all disputes relating to this are dealt with a consistent approach.
We have escalated this with Policy and aim to action your mandatory reconsideration as soon as guidance has been received.”

Regards Neil.

    Hi thanks for replying. What is annoying is the DWP decided in March not to appeal the tribunal’s decision. So I think it’s long enough. I also think it’s ironic that the tribunal thought it is discriminatory what the DWP as done, creating hardship for claimants, but yet I’m still suffering hardship. Regards Neil.
