    You haven't given any information for me to be able to advise you. The extra money isn't paid at all during the waiting period, which is 3 full assessment periods. It's then paid from the 4th month of your claim starting from when you provided your first fit note. First payment is then paid at the end of that 4th month.

    What date exactly did you provide your first fit note?

    What date do you usually receive your money each month?

    Did you continue to provide fit notes the whole time without any gaps until a decision was made?

    Hi @leerich43, welcome to the community 🙂 I hope we can help you with your LWCRA question, but as Poppy mentions we do need a bit of information from you! If you're okay to let us know, we can hopefully get you can answer.

    I'll just move this over to our Universal Credit section so it's more visible there 😊
