    Hi 

    You will get an award letter that will detail how much and when your backdated money will be paid and when your monthly payments will start 

    Some people get the back pay before the letter but others wait few weeks 

    I can't tell you how much as you dudnt say what you got standard rate for was it daily living or mobility 

    From 12th April standard rate daily living is £60 and mobility is £23.70 

    You will need to calculate at old rates to work out back pay they are £59.70 daily living and £23.60 mobility
