    Once you receive the decision, UC need time to process before LCWRA is added to your monthly payment, and any backpay calculated.

    Money owed is calculated separately and this usually takes several weeks at least. You'll know this has been done when a letter is added to your Journal confirming the amount they owe you.

    You'll then receive the money into your bank account several working days later.
