hello

I’m waiting my award letter from a unexpected paper based assessment over due 15 month wait

Have checked my bank today and it’s showing a payment that I’m guessing is back pay

Does this mean my review has been successful ?

And also does this affect UC ?

Thank you

    That sounds like good news is on it's way to you in the post @Headcook well done!

    PIP doesn't affect your UC.

    What about back pay and this causing savings with UC

    Benefits backpay is disregarded from counting as capital for UC purposes for 12 months.
