    The LCWRA element isnโ€™t paid at all during the waiting period. This will be 3 full assessment periods and the extra money is then paid from the 4th month after you provided your first fit note.

    When itโ€™s paid from exactly will depend on what date you provided your first fit note and what date you usually receive your money each month.

    Hi @Dilar, it's okay! The website is a little bit old-school being a forum style compared to many newer social media apps.

    We do have some handy guides here however if you'd like to learn how to use the community: Using the community - Scope | Online Community
