I wouldn't promise anyone anything before Christmas. Until you know what and when you're getting any backdated amount you can't commit to spending it. Hopefully you will hear something soon. I'm surprised you've not had a letter regarding the tribunal yet. I had mine within a week a few years ago but then COVID wasnt delaying things then.
Good luck

It can take up to 8 weeks, sometimes longer to receive backdated money and about the same time to put an award into payment after a Tribunal win. If you don't receive it by Friday then it will obviously be after Christmas.

You should have received the decision letter from HMCTS, which will have also been sent to DWP. When payment is made you will also receive a letter from DWP. Payment usually arrives in the bank before the letter.

About letters

Our Postie told me this afternoon Royal Mail letters are running up to 5 days late in parts of the UK due to unprecedented demands on the service !

hi 
just to let you know i called up this morning and they said the payment has gone to the manager to be signed off normally done in 24 hour he said (got sent off 7am today) normally money is in the account four days later so they said if the money is not gone in by 3rd call them..

I would add a few days to that 4 days this is time of the years.

Don't forget Monday 28th is a Bank holiday, DWP using BACS payments system.
