LCWRA has a waiting period of three full assessment periods, from the date the first Fit Note was handed in. No money is paid or subsequently owed for that period.

I would have expected any backpay to have been paid by now, as LCWRA has been added to your monthly payment they have processed the decision.

Sometimes when the decision has been quick no backpay is owed.

Hi @Bogacz, welcome to the community 😊 Hope we can help clear up the confusion here!

As Kimmy87 has mentioned LCWRA has a waiting period of three months from when you handed in your first fit note. It does matter what day you are paid universal credit and what day you put your first fit note in. If you could let us know these two dates then we should be able to help you figure out if there is anything owed!

What date exactly did you provide your first fit note?

What date do you usually receive your money each month?

Were there any gaps in those fit notes up until the decision was made?

Bogacz

First note in July 7 and got first payment of LCWRA 12 July,no gap

Bogacz

Sorry 12 November first payment

Bogacz

So once again first sick note 7 July and first payment of LCWRA 12 of November

Bogacz

No gaps between

Waiting period is July to Oct.. LCWRA starts from assessment period Oct/Nov and first payment 12th November. No money is owed and you've received the correct payment start date.
