Hello, I just wondered if anyone could give me a idea of back payment I may be owed as I still haven’t received anything. I was awarded the LCWRA on the 18th of may 2024. The first sick note I uploaded was on the 8th of January 2024. My assessment periods run from the 29th to the 28th of the following month. Does anyone know how to work it out? The first time conctacting universal credit was the 29th of December 2023. Thank you 😊

    Your waiting period will be Jan/Feb, Feb/March, March/April.. LCWRA starts from AP 29th April to 28th May and first payment will be 4th June. No LCWRA element is owed.

    If you or a partner were receiving earnings since you provided your first fit note and you didn't previously have the work allowance then you will be owed money from that.
