    Please see previous advice:

    If you are due any backpay this often reaches your bank account before the letter arrives 😊

    If it was just the standard review, then there's usually no back pay unfortunately.

    Yes I’m guessing it was a standard review as they awarded me till June 25 but started review October 24 and today been told I’ve been awarded again but with a increase of award

    Oh congratulations on the increase! Unfortunately they don't usually backpay reviews. Unless the review goes to MR or tribunal, then it'll only be back paid to when the DWP made their decision. I really wish they did give everyone back pay though!
