LCWRA is part of UC and will increase your maximum entitlement by £354.28/month. There's a full 3 month assessment period waiting time for the extra money and it's then paid from the 4th month after you reported your health condition/sent your first fit note.Based on the information you gave your first payment will be either March or April 2023. When it's paid from exactly will depend on what date you usually receive your money each month.0

As advised here..poppy123456 said:There's a full 3 month assessment period waiting time for the extra money and it's then paid from the 4th month after you reported your health condition/sent your first fit note.
It's not paid at all during the waiting period. Based on the information you gave you waiting period will be, Dec to March... LCWRA starts from 10th March to 9th April and first LCWRA payment will be 16th April.You're not owed any LCWRA element. The extra money will be included in your monthly UC payment.1 -

momms our claims rum at similar dates. Mine started in October & I had the results of decision yesterday. I am told only the monthly payments are seen in our Journal 'payment' information & anything owing, if it is, will be paid separately.1
