Hi
I've tried looking all over the place and can't find an answer. Please can you advise?

If I'm found to be awarded PIP at Tribunal, will the non dependent deductions being made from my UC housing element be back dated and repayed to me please? My daughter is a uni full time student. She has no earned income, she lives off of student loans.

Thank you

Regards
Anita

Hi Anita

Not sure what happened to the answer, as I remember answering it myself.

If you win your award, I would post the decision letter on your journal and ask for an 'any time review'.

Your UC should be backdate to the date of the decision, do not ask for a backdate as a backdate may only go back one month, if you ask for an any time review it goes back to the beginning.

Hi Gary
Thank you for that. Can I ask what is an anytime review? I've just tried Google, no luck. Does it have another name

Thank you

It is exactly what it says :), a review of a benefit Decision at any time after it is made, it is used for Decisions where there is no conflict over the details of the Decision, this would be an MR, but rather whether the Decision should have been made in the first place.

So, the Decision you are now contesting was made because you lost your PIP award, the Tribunal has re-instated that award, so the reason the ND Deductions were stopped no longer exists and you are asking the DWP to revise their Decision and reinstate the payments from when they were stopped.
