hi there , i get dla for my daughter and in regards to the new pip law change and back payments , i was wondering does any one know if you will get the back payment for the social prompting part as my daughter has asd and adhd and has always needed this prompting but going threw my paper work i noticed she was only put on the enhanced rate in end of 2019 but not before which was standard rate so i believe she should have had enhanced from begining as she has had it all her life and its all confusing reading threw thank you x

steph85 said:hi there she is on dlaThe rule changes apply to those claiming PIP not DLA. Your question is confusing because you mention she's on Enhanced and standard rate which indicates it's a PIP claim.Just to be clear if your daughter is under the age of 16 then it's definitely a DLA award and the prompting rules don't apply to DLA.If she's over the age of 16 then it's likely to be PIP in which the rules do apply but know one here will be able to tell you whether she's owed any backdated money. DWP are working they way through claims...eventually but this is going to take quite sometime to complete. She will be contacted in due course.0
