If the decision was successful, you would receive backpay 3-5 days after the payment has been released, the letter usually takes longer.

If the decision was unsuccessful than you would only receive the letter.

They should be able to tell you what the decision was over the telephone so you could always ring back and ask.

If successfully awarded they will tell you over the phone. Not sure if it's the same if you're not successful.

By dv, are you referring to domestic violence? If so, I just wanted to check in with you to see how things are now, and whether you're out of that situation?
