    Your waiting period will be April/May, May/June, June/July… LCWRA starts from assessment period 15th July to 14th August and first payment will be 21st August. You are not owed any LCWRA element.

    Good morning @steveb74, welcome to the community 😊 I hope Poppy has helped with your question! You'll start receiving LCWRA on the 21st of August. It would be nice if they just told you I think.

    How has your day been going?

    Some work coaches will be many of them often get it wrong. I’ve even seen case managers get it wrong many times. I’ve seen some shocking advice given by both in the past.

    Work coaches were always poorly trained and I could accept that to start with but UC was introduced 10 years ago, so there’s no excuses now for poor advice.
