Hello !!
So I recently had to move from IS to UC following my daughter hitting 5.
I was awarded pip, severe disability premiums all while on IS.
I applied to for UC on the 26th of may I included my disabilities on the form and had sick notes from this date until I was assessed.
I had to use advances until my payments were set up. Not sure if that info is relevant so just incase.
I was finally assessed and decision was I am in LCWRA category on the 30th of July.
On the 31st I was told I was owed money 313 of transitional payment protection back pay and it would be added to future payments.
Since then I haven’t been informed of the payment outcome of the decision on LCWRA and how that affects everything.
Does the transitional payments end?
Does my money go up due to the decision of my disability?
Will there be back pay ? Or am I not entitled due to the transitional protection payment ?
When are they likely to send payments ?
I have received my statement for the 27th of July -26th of August payment due the 3rd of September; which includes standard allowance, child, housing and transitional protection payments.
Than the minus of my advances debts.
So there is no mention of LCWRA or anything different.
If anyone could help I would be so grateful this is all so new to me and I hate not knowing where I stand and what’s happening.
Thankyou so much.
