Is this normal? How can they assess how I am in September 2021 and give it from Feb 2019 when i've not been assessed from that date?

Yes it's normal, the determination applies from when you reported the health condition.  If I recall correctly the thread has already covered this several times.

There's no backpay for LCW and I wasn't well from Feb 2019, definitely LCWRA.

We've spent the entire thread going round and round on this issue and got absolutely nowhere.

Indeed and it's now 21 pages long....

At least it's contained in one of the two threads, so could be worse.

      True (for now !)

Well, I have 2 issues in this section so I thought it's better to have the 2 as separate threads as they're different benefits.

No need to open another thread if it's about my WCA or PIP claim.

Yet the question you recently asked has already been answered.

And I genuinely thought they backdate any decision to the time of the last UC50 form, which in my case is March 2020.

No, they do not, the award starts from when you reported your health condition. Makes no difference in your case anyway because you don't receive any extra money. There's no end date to either LCW or LCWRA.

But how does your eye affect the pip descriptors?

As has been said. Pip is not based on conditions, only how they effect your daily life fitting into the descriptors.

This is for LCWRA, being able to work  ..... In terms of PIP there's the help with medicines that they gave 2 points for but it's mobility and engaging with others for the majority of points. Some other descriptors for minimum points. In this regard they (tribunal) didn't believe me and took the assessors view.

How does gout and eye issues affect engaging with others? If you need help with medication but no other areas of daily living you wouldn't score for pip. Mobility if 0 points more than 200 meters, 4 points up to 200 meters, can you walk less than 50 meters or more than 50 meters?
