Hello,
I moved back in with a distant family member over a year ago. This person receives ESA, PIP and housing support. I myself work but receive PIP. Prior to me leaving for a short time, they received the disability premiums in full because I myself received PIP daily living component.
My PIP came for renewal during my short absence and I lost my daily living component. During this time I moved back in but this family member lost their disability premium due to the strict rules on household member criteria.
I appealed my PIP claim and the decision was overturned and my PIP daily living standard rate was backdated to before me moving back in.
From my understanding this person is now eligible to get the disability premium again from now. My question is can we backdate this to the move in date given that it is around 1 year now. There shouldn't be any other reason why they can't get it.
Thank you for your help!
