    Hi,

    You will only get the extra £343 per month if you were found to have Limited Capability for work related Actvitity (LCWRA).

    If you were found to have Limited Capability for work (LCW then there's no extra money. Can you confirm exactly what the decision was please?

    That means your waiting period will be Dec/Jan, Jan/Feb, Feb/March.. LCWRA starts from assessment period 17th March to 16th April and first payment will be 23rd April. No backdated money is owed.
