Hi
After two long years of fighting, my daughters award for DLA was finally reinstated on Tuesday.
The Judge said they would email the DWP and gave me a copy of their decision,
She said that my daughter would be backdated and her payments reinstated.
Does anyone know how long this takes?
Thanks

Congratulations! :-)

Well done. Nice to hear happy stories about benefits.

I've read it can take 6-8 weeks for backdated payments but chase up after 4 weeks to make sure they haven't 'overlooked' any emails, hope this helps and congratulations

Congratulation. At least you are lucky. Have a great time to celebrate the strength and effort you put with your daughter to win this case.
