    Moved from Forum Requests. Mods, please feel free to move this to State Benefits or elsewhere if you think that's more appropriate.

    I am no expert but usually you are only entitled to backpay from the time that you put in your claim. Citizens information might know.

    No, it won't be back dated. It will only be paid from the time a claim is made.
