That the DWP's case manager was asking, and refusing to process (that is, release) the back payment of an appeal to raise the mobility component from standard to enhanced, until we chose whether to follow the appeal ruling, with the new end date of 2028, or continue with the PIP review, that had been deferred until next August seemed odd.
Supposedly it was because it is unusual to win an appeal during the review process...and granted it took us 5 years to go from zero points to 12 for the mobility component and we had to appeal appeals to get here....but it did still seem odd.
With the Tribunal ruling, as there is an end date you need to make sure you renew your PIP application before the end date, usually DWP sends out a renewal application one year before end date but not always, especially if a Tribunal has set a end date.
