Don't forget they can only appeal the decision if an error in law is found. This is extremely difficult and it's rare for them to appeal it, but it can happen.

Well done for winning . I myself just won my paper hearing only last week . I rang them on Tuesday and they have confirmed that they won't be taking me to court as the judge ruled saying there was insufficient evidence for them to supersede my previous award which was stopped in oct 2017 and they based their decision on the same bundle of papers that DWP had to make the decision to stop my money . I have an inoperable brain tumour and I struggle on a daily basis with simple things like even picking a cup up and using my left side completely . I can't even see properly out of my left eye . I had to give up work as a teacher 3 years ago when all this happened so I relied on my pip for all the out of town hospital appointment i have to attend . I had to surrender my driving licence back to DLA . Loss of my pip and financial difficulty now has left me with some debt so i have now decided to take this further regardless of DWP reimbursing me my money which they should not have stopped in the first place . I am lucky enough to have a family member who deals in law and know that I have a case for compensation . They even have now extended my award for 4 years .0

There is nothing else you can do but wait.
Usually the DWP put an award into payment 5-8 weeks
