    The exact date it's paid from will depend on what dates your assessment periods cover, or what date you usually receive your money each month.

    Based on the information you gave your first payment will be either Sept or Oct.

    An assessment period lasts for 30 days each month. 7 days after the end of each assessment period you receive your payment in the bank. What date do you usually receive your money each month?

    Not during the waiting period, which is 3 full assessment periods. It's then paid from the 4th month with payment at the end of that month. It's not paid at all during this period.

    As i adivsed, without knowing the answer to that question it's impossible to tell you exactly when it's paid from. It will be either September or October based on the information you gave. Any money owed will be paid separately to your usual monthly money.

    That means your waiting period will be June/July, July/Aug, Aug/Sept... LCWRA starts from assessment period 10th Sept to 9th Oct and first payment will be 16th October. This means up to now they owe you 1 months LCWRA element.

    You need to check your next statement to see if the element has been included. If the decision was only recently made there may not be enough of time to include it this month so they will owe you for 2 months.
