The Tribunal will inform DWP of their decision, which should include the length of time that you will receive the benefit for, before a review. The backdated date, if they issued one, and instructions to the DWP to pay any arrears due. However, the DWP will look at the Tribunal judgement, and if,and I mean If they consider the ruling by the Tribunal was flawed on a matter of law, they could appeal. However, yet again, they must appeal within 28 days, and it can only be on a matter of law, not the basic decision by the Tribunal.

Great news! However, the advice that DWP must appeal within 28 days is not correct here. DWP have 28 days to request the statement of reasons, not 28 days to appeal.
-
So they can't take it away from me then
-
The DWP cannot appeal the Tribunal Decision just because they do not agree with the decision. They can only appeal on a matter of law. If they believe the Tribunal has interpreted some element of the act incorrectly, or not taken cognisance of an Upper Tribunal Ruling on a specific interpretation of the act, then they may consider an appeal. You will know within 28 days, from the date of the TRIBUNAL ruling, if they will be appealing, because THEY MUST INFORM YOU at the same time as they SEEK LEAVE TO APPEAL Hope this clears up any confusion.

@Peasmold_01 DWP have 28 days to request the statement of reasons, this doesn't mean they can or will appeal.

Congratulations on winning your tribunal @Barlow88!

Congrats, Barlow
The DWP have 28 days to ask tribunal for a statement of reasons for their decision. If they ask for an SOR, when they receive this they will decide whether to appeal.
But in practice DWP only ask for SOR in a minority of cases and it is rare for them to appeal. -
