    Based on very limited information your first payment will be either Oct or Nov 2022.
    Without knowing the exact date you reported your health condition/fit note and what date you usually receive your money each month it's not possible to tell you exactly when it's paid from.
    Money owed will be paid separately to your usual monthly money and often takes quite a few weeks to pay it.
    The above advice is assuming you're not claiming UC with a partner that already receives the LCWRA element on your claim.
    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.
