It can take up to six weeks to process things following an appeal. DLA have to receive the decision/file of papers back from the Tribunal before they do anything. It will then go to the Decision Maker to check everything is in order and they do not wish to appeal against the decision. Following this they will usually contact to you for confirmation of whether you have been in hospital/any kind of residential care since the date the benefit was awarded from (as stays in hospital/residential care may affect the payment). Only once they have all this information will they be able to calculate the backdated payment and pay this out. Once the payment has been released it can take 3-5 working days to reach your account.

Hope this helps.

hi all,
I hope I can find someone here who can help and advise me....
I have applied for DLA in May 2010. I got the decision in October and as you can guess, they turned me down for both components.
I got a diagnosis of major depression with pschosis and I use 3 medicines for that..In addtion I have been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and high blood pressure.(all were diagnosed before the decision)
On the other hand, I have canal stenosis on my lower back for 5 years which was worsened after a bus accident last year and I cannot currently walk without a crutch and cant leave my home if there is no one with me.
I coudnt be able to work since july 2010, mainly due to my mental health and due to trying to kill myself. and receiving ESA with support group without a medical.
I asked for reconsideration for my dla, wrote a letter to them explaining how my conditions affect me, side effects of 8 medicines I use everyday also sent in 3 reports from my psychiatrist, 2 reports from the pysiotherapist and 2 from occupational t. 1 from gp, they still refused.
I got my tribunal hearing next wednesday and I am worriying about this as I dont know what to expect apart from seeing 3 people questioning me about my conditions.
If anyone can answer, What do you think my chances are at the tribunal???
Is there a possibility that they can agree with the DLA people saying I have no care needs neither I am virtually unable to walk??
If it sounds that I am entitled to it what component do you think it should be and what rate?? and what is the likely period that they might award it for?(i am having the mental health issues for almost 2 years now)
I know some people may laugh at me for these questions or some may think how stupid i am asking these here....
But I truly need someone to reply whatever the answer is pleaseeeee
