Hi, I have been awarded pip and have recieved my backpay and the award notice but I can't see anywhere as to when my 4 weekly payments will start.
All it says it we will pay into your account every 4 weeks in arrears.
Thank you for any advice.

    In the award letter it will tell you what dates your backdated money is paid from and to. You count 4 weeks from the date it's paid up until. For example, if you applied on 30th November and the money is paid up until 22nd April.. you could 4 weeks from 22nd April.

    PIP is paid 4 weekly in arrears.

    So your payment today will be for the four weeks from January 13th.
