    Do you mean it’s with the debt management team? If you owe money to DWP for anything then yes they can take the money you owe from any backdated money.

    There are no timescales how long it takes. It will be in the hands of the debt management team.

    I just wanted to wish you a warm welcome to the community @Dhinds123 :) Has poppy123456 been able to clear that up for you a little?

    I know it can all be a bit confusing, and the vague timescales don't make things any less stressful!

    Am I right in thinking that you're wondering whether you'll receive the money or the letter first, @Dhinds123?
