Hi there,

I've been on PIP since 2016 and notified them of a change in circumstances in May last year as my illnesses worsened. It's gotten to the appeal stage now.

If I win my appeal will it be backdated to the date I told PIP there was a change in circumstances or to the date they re-assessed me?

Thanks!

    HI,

    It should be backdated to the date you reported the changes.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
