Hi
Just over a fortnight ago I won my PIP appeal at tribunal
but haven't heard a thing from DWP. Does it usually take this long (or longer!) or do I need to chase it up?
When they turned me down they were in touch immediately!
They stopped paying my DLA in September so I assume my new award will be backdated to then?
I attended the tribunal with just my husband and no extra supporting evidence after being awarded just 2 points following my ATOS assessment and mandatory reconsideration. The panel couldn't have been nicer and awarded higher mobility and lower care for 3 years. So to everyone in the same situation, don't give up!

It typically takes 5-8 weeks for a Tribunal result to be processed and for back payments to be made.
Well done on winning
