    Hello again. Just a question. So the only ' changes in circumstances which may trigger LCWRA review are health issues/updates? Other stuff like  new tenancy agreement,or child moving in has nothing to do with LCWRA? I'm a bit stressed over it now, I don't want to get review and be not awarded 'child element ' jeez!!! I would shoot myself in foot right there.

    As I advised in a previous comment these changes will have no affect on your LCWRA element. Same applies for any new tenancy agreement or any change of address. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hello. Friday night I reported change of circumstances. Today I can already see payment for 1child added to my UC. Is this normal? No checks,no questions, or it's system error. Kind of strange...

    Have you received your monthly statement? I wouldn’t expect you to be able to see any changes until you receive that.

    Perhaps they checked with HMRC and were able to confirm that you are receiving Child Benefit.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
