HI,If this is a new claim for PIP then the money you received in your bank will be backdated money that's owed to you. Usually you receive money first and then the decision letter comes later. In the decision letter it will have details of what date you will receive your next payment and then money is paid every 4 weeks. As well as what award you have. If you disagree with the decision you can request the Mandatory Reconsideration (MR)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.

You can also ring DWP on Monday to ask what the decision is and they will tell you. They open at 9am and the number is 0800 121 4433. There will potentially be a long wait for them to answer so the earlier you ring the better.
