The DWP are the only people who will e able to answer your questions regarding payment amounts and dates.
-
If this was a tribunal decision, then DWP usually take 5-8 weeks to put into payment
Be all you can be, make every day count. Namaste -
CockneyRebel Yes it was a tribunal decision and it was 8 weeks yesterday. I contacted them and the courts clerk made an error
in the write up saying i was entitled to the advanced payment instead of the standard(daily living). So hopefully within the next few days-2 weeks i will get what i am due. Thank you for replying -
Hi @Kara53 sorry to hear there was an error. Hopefully it all works out soon, please continue to keep us updated.
