Didn’t you start a new claim before the Tribunal decision was made? If so, I’m not sure how it works in your case, someone else may know.

Yes but the case manager called me last week he said they have cancelled the new claim

Hi,

You should be able to get to this calculator:

https://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/pip-payment-calculator-form

It`s straightforward; on the left you enter the date you started the claim and the date the backdate payment was to (it`s down as end date in the calculator). On the right you select the award you have (it`s also straightforward).

This will give you a very good idea; it won`t be exact, but it will be pretty close.

You don't want to put the end date of your PIP award because they won't owe you money up until that date. Once they pay what they owe there will be a cut off period which they will pay you up until. You will then receive your payment every 4 weeks going forward.

Oh ok thanks it doesn't give option to leave the end date

If you put your claim start date in and then the date you received your first payment, that will give you an idea. I can`t remember, and I don`t have my letter in front of me, but does it give a date range for your backdated money? From your claim start date to xx/xx/xx - if it does, put those dates in.

Ok cause the end date they gave me was march this year

Was that when you started a new claim? If so then this will be the reason why. Though you did say in a previous comment your award was until 2024.

The thing doesn't let me go further than 2023

If you look at your award letter on page two, there will be a line that says "We will pay £xxxxx into your usual account on <date>.

The next line says "this is money that we owe you from <date claim start> to <another date>. These are the two dates you need to enter into the calculater. <claim start date> goes in the start date box and <another date> does into the end date box. That will give you an idea of how much you will receive. Your end date box can only be in 2022.

I haven't received my award letter yet i just wanted to see if i can get a idea of how much backdated i could get. I'm so sorry for the confusion

Oh, right - yes, I`m confusing you as well. You wouldn`t need the calculator if you had the letter

Sorry for that (I`ve had a long day). In that case in the start date box put the date you started your claim. In the end date box, put the date you found out you were going to get PIP. This won`t be exact because you don`t know the end date, but it will give you a good idea.

That’s excellent - and glad they have used some common sense.
