When I asked about back dated payment the response was
The carers element is only paid from the assessment period it is verified in so it will not be back dated as you didn't inform us about the caring until feb so we will pay the carers element from feb

Is it correct they don’t back date an only pay from Assasemnt period it was notified in
-
Has PIP recently been awarded @hello20?
-
Yes it was awarded this month

Hi,I also note from previous threads that you were also receiving the LCWRA element until recently, is that correct? If so then the same person can't receive this element and the carers element at the same time. Who was claiming the LCWRA element and who is the carer? sorry but i'm not sure who is who here.
