    Hi and a very good morning. It's just a quick question. I'm on ADP and I had a change of circumstance due to deteriation in my health. This was on the 10 April. It's gone to a redetermination now. I was just wondering. If my redetermination was successful and put on enhanced rate for mobility. Would this be backdated back to the 10th. Many thanks.

    Hey @Sunnyarran04 I'm afraid I'm unsure of the answer, but I just wanted to let you know I've made your question into its own separate discussion now, just to stop any confusion. I hope that's ok?

    Thanks Albus. I think I messaged the wrong place. Thanks again. Where would be the best place to go to maybe get this question answered.

    If it's anything like PIP ( a lot is very similar) and any new award is higher than your current award then you will be owed the difference between the 2 from the date you reported the changes.

    There's been very little feedback from members for ADP. You could speak to an advice agency near you.

    Thank u so much Poppy. Pip and ADP are the same. Just another glorified Scottish name. X
