      It's 28 days from them getting the decision from the appeal so you shouldn't wait that long now

      Great news Alison! DWP have the same rules as we do to appeal any decision, to be able to appeal a tribunal decision they have to ask them for a statement of reasons. They then have the same amount of time as we do which is 1 month. DWP may decide to appeal BUT it's very rare they do, the reason being because to appeal a tribunal decision an error of law must have been made in making that decision. DWP will have to prove that this happened.

      Your back dated money may take some time though and no one can really give you a time on this. Maybe you can ring the tribunal and ask if they've sent DWP their decision. If they have give DWP another ring. Hope this helps.
