Is anybody else waiting over 3 months to hear from the DWP regarding overturned by tribunal ESA claims, if so are we not entitled to some back pay as i`m still at this moment on Universal credit where i don't belong. Thankyou, any feedback appreciated.

Hello @Stoical65iam and welcome to the community.
If you're now claiming Universal Credit, you won't be able to switch back to ESA, regardless of the outcome of the tribunal.
Based on the outcome of the tribunal, you can ask for its decision to be transitioned so you are placed in the correct group under UC without need for further reassessment. This can get tricky if you're handing in sick notes and have been for a WCA under UC though. -

@Dotty123, hopefully your tribunal will come round before Feb 2020, but if it doesn't, as Poppy said, you may be eligible for income-related ESA. Your local CAB will be able to advise you and complete a full benefits check up nearer the time if it comes to that. -
Wow ok thank you

Thankyou Adrian and Dotty for the feedback. Hello also belatedly to Chloe. Dotty did you mean by accept appeal , allow appeal because my appeal was allowed back in February, in which case i think i'm owed some money. Adrian i've been for a WCA under UC and since been passed not fit for work yet again, so i no longer have to hand in any more sick/fit notes. But why are we treated like criminals only to get at the very least what we deserve.

The decision was, the appeal is allowed and that i have limited capability for work. The original decision is to be set aside.The matter is now remitted to the Secretary of State to make a final decision upon entitlement of ESA.This i don't understand as i'm hearing here that i can't get my ESA back as i'm currently on UC. I first claimed ESA around 2014.

Yes i have. More above on this. Thankyou.

I waited 12 months for a tribunal hearing, it was then adjourned as the DWP did not provide me with copies of the paperwork.

Poppy/Adrian I got my bundle of letters for tribunal how long for the tribunal will it be before get appt please
-
Tribunal waiting times are huge across most of the country. It's not long that you requested it so i'm afraid you're in for quite a wait. Some people are waiting in excess of 1 year. You should go through that bundle to check everything, or take it with you and get some face to face advice.

Thats Grt I’m in no hurry ?il take it to cut adv thank you
-
Got txt from dwp bout tribunal it says look thru all pages any not right send to tribunal does this mean my tribunal is soon it does say they don’t no how long
-
No, it doesn't mean the Tribunal is soon. As advised previously, backlogs are huge and as you only just requested the Tribunal you most likely have a very long wait... a lot of people wait about 1 year.You need to check that the bundle is correct and you should take the bundle to an advice centre near you.
