pip tribunal decisions was created by M11GEGSAFC
Hi My son was asked to do assessment for p.i.p coming from d.l.a .Then another form,then reconsideration, then mandatory ...all in all it was refused to appealed to tribunal.He received a decision 2 months roughly later overturning decision saying both daily living and mobility is to be paid from date it was ceased in May 2016 as his appeal had been allowed.
Within days of this a letter came from dwp saying they were going to consider appealing and were asking for a statement of reasons as to why the change in decision and that they have a month to decide wether or not if they will appeal and will notify us if they go ahead.
Surely the tribunal 's decision is final ? What is the point of continual back and forth with beginning and end of claim if finally tribunal overturn decision and dwp can then question it ?
And does he need to do anything in meantime ?

The DWP have the same right as the claimant - that is, to request a Statement of reasons from the Tribunal Service and take this further only if they can demonstrate that an Error of Law occurred.

What is an Error of Law?

Otherwise, the decision must be put into action. Your son does not need to do anything meanwhile.
