Is anyone able that could help with a DLA question. I've been waiting around 16 weeks for a decision. I haven't had a letter but I've just received a large sum of money I'm assuming back payment of dla. Would anyone be able to work out what rate I've been given?

If you let me know your scan date (date on the letter you get when they received it, or if you called for a form and sent it back. They date you rang them for application form) and the date back pay was received I can help you calculate it

It was the 12th Feb on the letter. And the amount I've just had drop in was £1182

Hi, were you applying for the care component only? From the amount you’ve received that works out at £73 per week so middle rate care

Yes because my son is under 3 so he can't get mobility rate. Thank you so much.
