I won my esa tribunal in January 17th 2019 but I have not heard back from dwp how long does it take

Hi,It can take 8 weeks to receive any backdated money owed. The only way to know what's happening is to ring DWP and ask.
-
Every time I've rang them I'm on hold for 45 mins and they just say we'll send you a letter when complete
-
I don't think I'll get any back payment because I was claiming jsa while I was waiting
-
What group were you placed into by the Tribunal? and when did you first claim ESA?
-
I claim esa in November 2017 and I'm in that work group
-
Got put on jsa in January 2017
-
Claims for ESA that were started after April 2017 aren't paid the work group component. This means that there won't be any backdated money owed to you if you claimed JSA or ESA assessment rate while waiting for the Tribunal decision.
