So I’ve been reading, I understand you only get backdated payment 3 assessment periods after your first fit note.
Here’s the info you guys will probably need because I don’t quite understand the way it’s explained.
I started my whole UC claim on the 15th October 2024 making my assessment period the 15th-14th of each month. That much I know
I was awarded lcwra on the 6th of march, so if I’m awarded money from three assessment periods after I submitted my first sick note in October would that be
Oct-nov, nov-dec, dec-jan ?
So let me know if I’m way off but should I be awarded backdated payments for the assessment period of
Jan-Feb
Feb-march
Granted that my assessment period is the 15-14th of every month. It may also help if I add that my payday every month is the 21st so that is after the Feb-march assessment date, if you understand what I’m saying ?
Would I be entitled to the £415 Lcwra x2 ? For the two periods after the three original assessment periods ? And if I am awarded that money when will I get it because it’s the 21st and I got just the £715 that includes the lcwra but no backdated. Thankyou for taking your time to read this
