    Hi,

    If it's a first time PIP claim and you weren't transferring from DLA then it's backdated to the date you rang to start the claim. Backdated money takes 3-5 working days to go into your bank, depending on who you bank with.

    If you were transferring from DLA then there's no backdated money.
    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.
