    It is unlikely the cut off period will be the date the decision was made because your first payment will be 4 weeks after you receive your backdated money. Everyone's cut off period will be different.

    Is cut of usually the day the decision was made though ? @poppy123456
    I don't know how they arrive at the end date for the arrears payment but the answer to that question is no.

    As previously advised, it's different for everyone and it's unlikely you'll find an answer here. If you want to know how much money is going into to your bank exactly then only DWP can tell you this.

    Not sure I actually understand the question...I continued receiving my standard rate mobility and daily living so the back payment I got was from when I put my change of circumstances in up to and including my next payment..four weeks after that I received my new enhanced for both payment

    Basically what they are asking is how much backdated money they will receive. They started the claim at the end of August 2021 and they know it’s backdated to the date you rang but they don’t know what dates the backdated money will include.
     No one can tell them this because everyone’s cut off period is different. For them it’s 12 weeks up until 23/11/2021. Standard daily living award would give them about £720 backdated money, give or take.

    @DuffersMum, when you receive the official award notification letter the full details of your award details and length of award will be stated along with details of any monies owing from the application date to your award notification date and details of your next new PIP payment and the ongoing payments. I hope this is clear for you.

    My question was very simple to be honest I was asking when the backdated payments were till 
    again I know they start from the date you made a claim but what date does the backdated payments end 
    is it the date you was awarded? 
    Or is it till the date you receive the payment am so on 
    i Thought someone would know 
    I will just wait for my award letter ha 
    sorry for the confusion

    I already knew all that, I was trying to explain that’s what happened when I got my arrears paid, but I obviously didn’t do it very well.. lol

    You explained perfectly but some people don't read threads before commenting.

    Got my decision letter @danixxx I scored 0 in every single category. I’m going to challenge it, it’s so disheartening but it is what it is

    Thank you so much @Alex_Scope I’ll have a look at those links. Do I just ring to tell them I want a MR? Sorry I’m a bit clueless about this, my first time applying for anything like this

    You're welcome @mariaaaa123, I believe you've got a bit of time to let them know, one month from the decision date, on the letter. There's a form you can fill out to do this, or you can write in a letter.

    This page is the best place to start on the Turn2Us website, apologies I should have popped it in my earlier post. All the details should be there :)

    That's okay @mariaaaa123, I believe you have a bit of time to let them know, one month from the decision date on the letter. You can let them know using a form, or by writing a letter.

    You can find more details here, apologies that should've been my original Turn2Us link!
