That means your waiting period is June/July, July/August, Aug/Sept… LCWRA starts from assessment period 2nd Sept to 1st Oct and first payment will be 8th Oct. No LCWRA element is owed.

Hi @st20000, welcome to the community 😊 I hope Poppy has helped answer when you'll be seeing your first LCWRA payment. There is a waiting period after your first note before LCWRA starts being paid, which Poppy has calculated above.

Please do let us know if you have any other questions though 🙂
