If you recieve your payment on 28th of every month then your assessment periods will be 22nd to 21st of every month, not 20th to 22nd.Your waiting period will be March/April, April/May, May/June.. LCWRA starts from assessment period 22nd June to 21st July and first payment will be 28th July. This means up to now they owe you 1 months LCWRA element.Money owed will be paid separately to your usual monthly money and often takes quite a few weeks to pay it.You will need to check this months statement to see if the LCWRA element is included.The above advice assumes 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.
