in Start here and say hello!

please help me!!! I was on middle rate care and lower mobility DLA, I had to change over did that the 17th February

Had a text to say I have been awarded PIP yesterday

Rung and all they can say is is that £750.60 will go in my Bank the 7th July

My DLA is Due the 19th May

Why do I then wait 7 weeks for the pip payment and is it right You receive no back dated money from PIP when changing from DLA

How do I know what my rates are

Many thanks

    Hi,

    You will receive a letter in the post soon telling you which rates you get.

    Usually we can work it from a payment, but £750.60 doesn't fit any combination of PIP rates.

    You may still get another DLA payment after the 19th, DLA should be paid for 4 weeks after your PIP decision.

    There is no backpay because you have been getting DLA while waiting for the PIP decision.
