Looking for experiences from anyone who had a PIP tribunal win after making a second claim while the first appeal was still ongoing.

My situation:

• Original PIP claim made in April 2024.
• Claim refused and MR refused.
• Appealed to tribunal.
• While waiting for the tribunal, I made a second PIP claim in May 2025.
• The second claim was refused and the MR was also refused.
• I've now had my tribunal decision and won.

The tribunal decision states that I am entitled to Standard Daily Living and Standard Mobility from 12/04/2024 until 11/04/2034.

My question is:

Has anyone been in a similar situation where they made a second claim while waiting for a tribunal on the first claim?

If so, did DWP:

1. Pay arrears continuously from the original claim date up to the date of implementation?
2. Stop the arrears at the date of the second claim?
3. Handle it in a different way?

I'd be really interested to hear how it worked out in your case and what happened with the backdating.

Thanks.

I was contacting yesterday a bank holiday and was asked if I could handle a lump sum and confirmed my bank details..I called today and was told a decision was made but can't tell me wait 2 weeks I did not hear the your next payment thing so does that mean I haven't got it ? They made a decision yesterday so not sure..
