Hi, 
  So I have been proving sick notes since Dec 2022. I was referred for the Work Capability assessment on the 6th of Feb and received my phone call assessment on the 4th of April. They put a message in my journal the next day to notify me that i have been awarded limited capability and will receive extra money. Im just wondering when i would receive this?

    It depends on what date exactly you sent your first fit note and what date you usually receive your money each month.
    Based on the limited information you gave your first LCWRA payment will be either April or May 2023.
    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.
