Tribunal Decision

Hi gale.b

Well done fir winning your appeal.
Normally it takes around 4 to 5 weeks for DWP to action a payment following a tribunal. DWP get notified automatically via the tribunal.

There is a right of appeal but this is very rarely ever used by DWP. The right of appeal requires an error of law, so there is no automatic right if appeal just because they don't like the decision. In order to appel DWP woukd need to apply for the written Statement of reasons which is the fully explained decision, nor just the brief version handed out at the end of the hearing. DWP would then need to examine the WSOR and then argue there is an error of law. They would normally have one onto to ask for the WSOR. All claimants have a similar right of appeal based on an error of law.
If your tribunal was fairly recent I suspect that DWP simply hasn't processed your claim yet. You could phone DWP and explain that you have succeeded at the tribunal and are awaiting benefit payments. DWP will probably confirm that they are processing it. Or tell you that it was done yesterday (I always get that time scale!) Which might mean they'll do it today!
You certainly should get the award backdated until the claim date if this an original claim or when the relevant review is made instead.
I hope this helps.
