    That's what I was thinking because the assesor has all the information you provided and makes a recommendation based on thier opinion and thier medically qualified so I doubt a dwp dm would look at the same evidence and go against it if they did I don't get were they would have a leg to stand on about how they came about the decision to go against a medical professionals opinion but I have seen some story's on here that sound like it's happend before but I guess I won't know until I receive a decision its driving me insane with anxiety the thought of having to do a MR and go through months of waiting again is horrible

    @poppy123456 think we’re both aware of that 
    but I have never known anyone who was awarded it from assessor point of view but not by the DM is what I was gettin at to @JamesSmith33
    I've seen it happen on here.
    its driving me insane with anxiety

    It's a very stressful process for everyone, myself included. Hopefully, it won't be too much longer for you.

    The LCWRA element is part of Universal Credit, which is a means tested benefit. Not everyone is entitled to UC and it depends on a person’s circumstances.

    Yes I am entitled to uc as I claim that now whilst waiting for the lcwra assessment due to my inability to work

    I know you claim UC because i have advised with that on previous threads. My comment was aimed at others in general because you asked another member if they have applied for LCWRA.

    It was just a question to see how he is getting on with his was unaware he wasn’t claiming lcwra
