Lcwra help!

I first provided my fit note on the 10/08/2020
it was accepted the same day. My assessment periods are from the 21st till the 20th every month and get paid every 27th of every month I’ve been placed in the lcwra and I’m very aware I had to wait 3 months I’ve checked my statement for the 27/01/2021 and nothings showing for extra element and it has been 3 months has anyone else experienced this

This is how they should work it out.
21st July to 20th August - Fit note reported, but doesn't count as not a full month.
21st August to 20th September - Month 1
21st September to 20th October - Month 2
21st October to 20th November - Month 3
21st November to 20th December - First payment. So you should be owed for the 27th of December and now for the January too.
Sadly it's not uncommon for them to make errors when calculating when LCWRA should begin. A lot of CMs seem to be under the impression it is 3 months wait period from the date of decision, rather than from evidence.
Have you sent them a message to query this?

If you have a few minutes to spare, we'd appreciate your feedback on our online community.
When was you awarded LCWRA
I would give them a call or put something in your journal as I would have thought you would have had payment by now
Are you certain it was LCWRA and not LCW you were awarded
I suggest you give them a call and ask to speak to your case manager
