Awarded LCWRA - When will I get my first payment?

Hi had my WCA on 3/10/24 and got my decision on my journal on 10/10/24 - I have been awarded LCWRA. I have been trying to get my head around when I can expect to receive my first LCWRA payment - think I’m right, but can someone clarify my answer please.

My AP are 2nd - 1st with payment being on 8th.

My first fit note was dated 17/06/24 - 16/08/24 which I sent in on 19/06/24 (61 days). My second fit note dated 17/08/24 - 16/10/24 (61 days) and was sent in on 19/08/24.

No longer need to send in any more fit notes.

Am I right in thinking that I will receive my first payment 8/11/24 as that will be 3 full assessment periods?

June/July - can’t count as not full month

July/August

August/September

September/October

Thank you.

Yes, you are correct LCWRA starts from AP 2nd Oct to 1st Nov and first payment 8th November. No LCWRA element is owed.
