Hello, All

Hope everyone is ok.

Just a quick question. I was awarded LCW for 18 months, this end 17th June 2025. Will Universal credit contact me to do a new LCW assessment? Is there really an end date?

Is there anyone else in a similar position to me or still waiting for DWP to contact them?

I have mentioned to my coach that the 18 months finished in June 2025, but she says, they have a back log and just wait.

The idea of having to go through the whole process, plus a tribunal hearing to be awarded LCW just terrifies me. My health conditions are just more painful, despite pain taking medication.

If anyone can advice, I would be grateful.

Thank you.

    Heya @Trufflecake I hope you're doing ok today.

    With LCW/LCWRA the end dates are just rough estimates, the awards are in theory indefinite, so they'll get around to you in time, but they won't be rushing. So it's nothing to worry about.
