More information is needed before I can advise.
1/ Were there any gaps in your fit notes, up until the decision was made?
2/ What date do you usually receive your money each month?

hi there no gaps in fit notes I had the medical assessment and they sent a letter dated 8th of August to say I was found to be LCWRA I sent fit notes every 4 weeks all within date from 22nd of March. I received money yesterday so get it every 23rd of month.

Your waiting period will be April/May, May/June, June/July.. LCWRA starts from assessment period 17th July to 16th August and first payment will be 23rd August.
This is assuming you're not claiming UC with a partner that already receives this element on your claim.
If no partner is receiving this element, can I please just check that it was the 22nd March you actually provided your first fit note and that wasn't the date on the fit note itself?
It's the date you provided it that counts, not the date on it.

Thank you. Then it should have been this month. Put a message onto your journal under the payment section and tell them the LCWRA element wasn't included in this months statement and it should have been.

The request the Mandatory Reconsideration on the decision not to pay it from assessment period 17th July to 16th August.
Tell them the date you provided your first fit note and there were no gaps. Also remind them that the waiting period starts from when you provided your first fit note.

hi when should I have started to receive the lwrca payments as they was only made from the end of September.
thank you0 -
First payment should have been for the period 17th July to 16th August, with first payment on 23rd August. If you received your first payment on 23rd September, this means they owe you for 1 month.
Once the statement is recalculated you will receive a letter on your journal and the money will be paid into your bank.

ok as I was confused I received the letter back in begging of September stating that they accepted the mandatory reconsideration but nothing about any monies owed
Thank you for responding

Oh, I couldn't see a date on that letter and thought you had just received it. Yes, they owe you 1 months LCWRA element, which was due on 23rd August.
Put a message onto your journal under the payment section and ask about the LCWRA element that they owe you for that period.
