HI,

That's great news! For your backdated money you will need to ring PIP and ask them when you can expect to receive the money they owe and they will tell you.

The carers money you mention when you were claiming ESA i'm assuming you mean the severe disability premium. Unfortunately, there's no premium paid when claiming UC so you won't be able to claim this anymore.

Someone can of course claim carers allowance for looking after you but this will depend on their circumstances.
