    Hi @Cupcakesyum1 and welcome to the Community.  It's nice to meet you.  Congratulations on winning your tribunal!  That is excellent news!  I'm sorry, but I'm unsure about this, but maybe your best bet is to phone DWP to ask them how much they are going to pay you and if anything is backdated.  I hope you find out the answer to your question anyway and please let us know how you get on.  All the best.  :smile:

    Hi @Cupcakesyum - Welcome to the community, & thank you for joining. Congratulations on winning your tribunal! I hope it's not too long before you find out about the money you should receive. As Ails says you could always ring to find out about this, but they should notify you. :)

    Hello @Cupcakesyum1. If you were receiving standard rate up until your tribunal and they have awarded you enhanced rate, you will be owed the difference between the two.
