Hi @deelea67

Good Evening & Welcome ??

Hopefully I can help you with this!!!!!!!

Currently there is a lot going on in terms of “backdated payments” for people who transferred from “incapacity Benefit” onto “esa”

Please let me know if I can help you further??

No probs!!!!

It’s all down to being put in the wrong “group” when switching from “ICB onto ESA”
