Tribunal backpay

Hello. First post. So i won my sons tribunal from November 2017. As i was waiting i had more evidence and because im new to this i phoned the DWP to ask about sending it in they said it'll be easier and quicker with new evidence to do a new claim, so i did. Also refused. Anyway i left it. Went to tribunal august 18 and won HRC from nov 17 till january 19 as the tribual award letter states. Now ive found out that cause i lodged another form whislt waiting even tho it was refused the tribunal decision doesn't stand??? Is this right. I had no idea and wasnt informed , im absolutley devasted. please help

Welcome to our online community/family.
I’m very very sorry to hear about your current situation/problems.
I do think that we need some “Experienced Advice” with this if that would be ok????
We have got some “Benefit Advisors” here on our site.
I will forward your post onto them straightaway.
Unfortunely they are currently very busy so I can’t give you a timescale for there response????
Hi @BenefitsTrainingCo
Can you please offer me some help with this “Benefit Query”
Many Thanks.
Time line if it helps
Renewal declined November 2017 so applied for tribunal
January 2018 new form as per the instructions of the dwp advisor
April 2018 decline
August 2018 tribunal decision won
It was bad advice for you and good for the DWP never trust what they tell you always seek independent advice
