    First payment will be either July or August, depending on what date you ususally receive your money each month.

    The LCWRA element isn't paid at all during the 3 month waiting period. It's then paid from the 4th month after you reported your health condition/sent your first fit note. 

    As i previously advised, first payment will be either July or August. The exact date will depend on what date you usually receive your money each month.
