Backdated benefits
How to get your benefits backdated
Pension age claimants can request that benefit be backdated for a maximum period of 3 months from the date you make the request.
If you are of working age and claim other benefits, you may be able to get your Council Tax Support backdated to 1 April 2024.
If you want your benefit claim backdated you must write to the office and give your reasons why you did not claim earlier.
