    Perfectly normal not to have a decision on the day, it doesn't mean anything. They're usually fairly quick sending you the decision letter and some receive it in a couple of days.

    At my appeal 2 weeks ago they asked if i wanted to wait outside for my decision or receive  it by post , I said I wanted it done and finished today , it took 15 mins to call me back in and have the written decision there on the desk , one for me and one for my representative,

    DWP can only appeal if they find a error in law. They can ask for a statement of reasons  they have 28 days to do this. DWP did not with me they just waited 28 days and they are now sorting out my arrears and award.
    Goodluck

    Great news. It can take 8 weeks for you to receive back dated money. DWP have 1 month from the date of the decision to request the statement of reasons. If they request this it doesn't mean they're going to appeal. They can't do this unless an error in law is found. If they do request the SOR they'll write to you and tell you.
