Hi I'm Dal Adams and I'm new on here. Told I can get LCWRA, but no payment still.

Hello I'm on universal credit and been getting it from August. I had a letter because I was on the sick and they've now said I'm entitled to something called lcwra do I use the same journal for universal credit as I do for lcwra to look at payments because I got my universal credit payment come up and it doesn't show the LCWRA payment on there

Heya @daladams and welcome to the community. 😊

LCWRA is an add on for standard UC, but after you've been awarded it (usually after a work capability assessment aslo known as a WCA) then there will be a 3 month waiting period, then you start getting the LCWRA component on the 4th payment cycle.

There is a waiting period of 3 full assessment periods before LCWRA is added to your payment. During that time no additional money is payable.

In order to help we will need to know the following:

The date you provided your first Fit Note

Were there any gaps in your Fit Notes?

Your assessment period & payment dates.

First sick was August and was for 3 months it ended 30th October I renewed for one month to 30th November but 2 weeks ago I had a assessment on the phone then I received a letter last week and a message on my journal saying I don't have to put no more sick notes in and I will be receiving extra money for lcwra he said the first 3 months I won't get paid but I will get paid for the fourth month which is November and I should be getting my benefits on the 22nd of November. I looked on the journal it says my universal payment but not the lcwr a payment
