Hi
I received my UC-Lcwra yesterday(26/4/24) and it was the £390.08 rate.
Upon checking ,its been raised to approx £416 pm. 

Will this be paid in my May payment?  Is April classed as 23/24

    You will receive the increase in your next payment. For UC purposes no one will receive any increase this month. The first increase applies to those with assessment periods starting on or after 8th April. Therefore the first increase will be paid to those with payment dates from 14th May.

    You will still be entitled to 12 payments at the new rate.
