I see Poppy has been trying to help in your other thread:

https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/124375/hi-my-name-is-nufc2024-am-i-entitled-to-back-pay

If as I understand that thread, the review was started by the DWP then no money is owed.

This is because the LCW to LCWRA decision, and entitlement to LCWRA element will be dated from the assessment period of that decision.

Because you went from LCW to LCWRA, that 13 week waiting period doesn't apply.

It only applies to new claims.

As you were already getting LCW, it wasn't a new claim.
