Hi Sarah and welcome
Yes you will get back pay from the start
If it was a new claim from when you claimed
if it was a review or a change from DLA, to when your claim stopped

Yes I was on DLA for 21 year then on the 21/9/16 they put me on pip and I lost so I I appealed again they decision it took the court 17 month for me to go there and I won on the 21/2/18
So am just waiting for letter from them know and see how much they going to pay me

It usually takes 5-8 weeks for DWP to put a tribunal award into payment.
Large amounts generally need to be checked and signed off by a senior DM/manager
