OK, I am waiting to hear about my upcoming tribunal. If I win, do I get backdated pay from the date it stopped? Also, would my PIP be automatically restored or would I have to make a new claim?

Hi Stickman
As far as I know yes you should have back pay to the date they stopped your money. Your PIP should be restored straight away if you have enough points, remember though PIP is 4 weeks in arrears and you only have to make a new claim if your health has changed. I have my tribunal next week and I have been given this advice off my benefit advisor.
Good Luck hope all goes well for you. -
Hi,If successful then yes it's backdated to the date it stopped. No, you won't have to make a new claim but it can take 5-8 weeks to receive backdated money owed and for your payments to start if the Tribunal goes in your favour. Good luck.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

Thanks. I have a meeting next week about my situation with PIP. But I'm starting to feel as if I've done something wrong when I haven't.

that's how they wish you to feel, good luck and fingers crossed at tribunal, it's always catch 22 for everyone

I think we should be owed additional money for stress caused. I am finding it hard to pay bills.

What is the situation with PIP now? As we will be getting a new Prime Minister, will the rules change again?

Good. I don't want to have to prove that I'm disabled again.
