It will depend on what date exactly you reported your health condition.

Reported March - April 2021
waiting period April to July 2021
LCWRA payable for July to August 2021 (16th August payment)
You should see the LCWRA element in your next payment.
Arrears due will be paid separately after DWP have worked out the amount due.
Note that when DWP calculate your previous entitlement new monthly statements will be placed on your journal. These will overwrite the old statements so if you want a record you should download those now.0 -

They need to recalculate them to work out exactly how much they owe you. The LCWRA element is a set amount of £343.63 per month.

Hi can someone help me too please?
I was awarded LCWRA on 06/ 03/ 22
My first Fit note was on 09/12/ 21
My normal universal credit payment is the 18th of the month and for this period there is no change.
They said they would contact me within 7 days if I am eligible for more money but I haven't heard anything.
When should I expect a payment?
Thanks in advance.0 -

Thanks in advance.There's a full 3 month assessment period waiting time and the extra money is paid from the 4th month of your claim. During the waiting period, it's not paid at all.If you reported your health condition on the same date you sent your first fit note then this will be in the Dec/Jan assessment period. (AP)Therefore your waiting period is as follows. Jan/feb, Feb/March, March/April. LCWRA starts from AP 12th April -11 May and first payment will be 18th May.0 -
