    Hi there 

    There is no fixed timescalenthey need to calculate payments and authorise 

    Keep checking your payment statements and when old ones change to show added element they will have done the calculation

    Hi @jpjpjp7777

    When did you first submit a fit note? And, have you submitted them without any gaps?  The wait period is 3 full assessment periods and you will get paid at the end of the fourth. 

    Please let us know how you get on.
