    Hi,

    great news, well done. Yes it will be backdated to October. DWP have the same amount of chance to appeal a decision as we do, including the same amount of time. To Appeal a decision to the Upper Tribunal DWP will have to prove that an error of law has been made in making the decision. To do this they first have to ask for the Statement of Reasons. This very very rarely happens, so i wouldn't worry. Back pay may take a fair amount of time though with some waiting weeks or even a couple of months. Hopefully you won't have to wait that long.
