Hi I currently recieved enhanced rate living. Back in may I done a change in circumstances as my mobility had got bad. I got the forms went to assessment and phoned them today to be told I was awarded enhanced (no change) to daily living but now get mobility standard rate too. As it was a change in circumstances will that be backdated from when I informed them ? Or will it be from the date the decision was made. I'm so confused with it all. Some say i will get backdated as it's a change in circumstances some say it will be from date the decision?? Thank you

    Hi,

    Great news. It should be backdated to when you reported the change of circumstances.
