Hi I won my ESA appeal on 30th Jan -Reg 29 applied and Court recommended WRAG. My initial application for ESA was in January 2017 so do I qualify for the Work-related component of additional payment of £29.05 and if so will it be backdated and does anyone have any idea how long does it the DWP to sort his out?
As your claim was made before the change in April 2017 you are entitled to payment of the WRAG component and it will be back dated to the day after your ESA was stopped.
It usually takes the DWP 5-8 weeks for the DWP to process a tribunal result, I would give them a call next week to make sure that they have received the Decision Notice.
