Hello, my PIP was recently reviewed and my award has been increased. I am now due a backdated payment to February. I have received an award letter which says I will be due a backdated payment, however I was just wondering if anybody knows when I will receive the backdated money as this date is not mentioned on the letter, will it be included in my next z payment date? Or paid separately? If anyone has any idea how long this usually takes from the award letter that would be great. Thank you!

    If there's any money owed this is usually paid before you receive the decision letter. As you haven't received anything and it does mention what's owed in the decision letter then you'll need to ring PIP to ask. I would expect any money owed to paid as a separate payment.
