I've been accepted for LCWRA. When should I receive my first payment?

Hello all..
Sent fit note to DWP, they accepted the fit note via journal, fit note dated June 11th.
Had my phone assessment 20th July..
Had PDF uploaded to journal saying accepted for LCWRA on 30th July..
I know there is some sort of a waiting period for 3 months but on what date should i receive
my first payment? 
Regards

(That has been processed remarkably quickly.)
The waiting period is three full assessment periods after the date you first report the health condition (as long as that is supported by a Fit Note within 7 days).
If you reported in June you will be due LCWRA from October or November depending on the dates of your assessment periods.

Hello @waspkiller and welcome to the community, good to see you join us!

I hope the above information has been helpful, just to let you know I have moved your discussion over to our Universal Credit category.

Yes it was quite quick, the assessment lady said she couldn't understand why i wasn't  been placed on this years ago, anyways..
So if they accepted my sick note on the 11th June and they have already said i have been accepted for LCWRA, when am i likely to receive any added payments?
My normal Universal credit assessment period is the 17th to 16th each month and my normal universal credit payment day is the 22nd each month, so when is my added element  periods worked out and will it be the same day as my main universal credit payment day? and am i likely to receive any added payments in either the 22nd September or October 22nd payment date..
Kindest regards

If you first reported your health condition on 11th June that is in the May to June AP.
Three full APs are therefore June-July, July-Aug and Aug-Sept.
LCWRA element due in the Sept-Oct AP payable on 22nd October. It is included as part of the normal UC payment.
