Advice was given on your other thread here.

https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/125970/hi-my-name-is-deborah1969-lcwra-amount-and-payment-date

As advised in that thread the rules are you're supposed to provide fit notes the whole time without any gaps right up until the decision is made on the WCA. As there were gaps, it's now down to a decision maker to decide when the extra money is paid from.

All you can do is put a message onto your journal under the payment section and ask about the extra money.

Going forward you should receive the LCWRA element in your next statement. You'll need to check to make sure.

Money that's owed is always paid as a separate payment.

I was awarded lcwra on the 27th of November, got a call on the 2nd of December from dwp telling me they owed me some money, received it into my bank today the 4th

Don’t know if I was just lucky that it was that quick

A BACS payment takes 3-5 working days to go into your bank from the date it’s paid.

Your past statements needs to be recalculated to work out how much money you’ve already received against what you should have received. You will then be paid the difference between the 2. Once that is done you’ll receive a letter in your journal telling you how much is owed and it will be paid into your bank.

Have you received that letter yet?

Deborah1969

no just a note saying it’s with the checking team 🙂

When you receive a letter with the amount owed, you'll know that the checking team have finished 😊

Deborah1969

hi kimmy

Do you know roughly how long they take, was hoping to get something back in time for Christmas 🤶

Kimi87

There are so many factors when considering timescales for these kind of things to be done, unfortunately it's not possible for anyone to answer that here, other than how long is a piece of string 😊
