LCWRA First payment

Hi
I handed my first sick note in on 19th Sept 2024, I have had them in constantly since except as they ended on weekends and one in December was when I moved doctors due to moving home , they have always been backdated to the right day before the final reminder ran out. On 19th October my claim for limited capability was put in and I had my phone assessment on 23rd Dec. I received a letter telling me I had been assessed as LCWRA on 16th Jan 2025 but it has no dates on it, when should I expect my first payment and would I be due any backpay? The letter tells me no information other than I've been assessed as lcwra.
Many Thanks

I forgot to say I get paid in the 5th and my assessment periods are 29th to 28th

Unfortunately any gaps in your Fit Notes will effect the waiting period, supplying a backdated note counts as as a gap.
I can't do a timeline as I do not know when UC will start the waiting period from.

Ok, thanks, if that's the case December was the longest gap due to moving
