Hi Will1
I understand that you were/are in receipt of UC when you were awarded the PIP arrears so the following applies "6.4 In respect of UC, this instrument provides that any benefit arrears or payment made to compensate for arrears due to the non-payment of benefit, of £5,000 or more which are received whilst a claimant is getting UC, or" ..............."will benefit from the extended disregard until their current UC award ends". The other part of the sentence refers to previous Legacy Benefits and migration to UC.
