Backdating payment

Hi there,
I've been on PIP since 2016 and notified them of a change in circumstances in May last year as my illnesses worsened. It's gotten to the appeal stage now.
If I win my appeal will it be backdated to the date I told PIP there was a change in circumstances or to the date they re-assessed me?
Thanks!

Hi @aspieangie, I'm sorry to hear things have got worse for you. I hope the claim goes in your favour
