edited March 2022 in Universal Credit (UC)
Original UC50 posted December 2020 - this was followed by a telephone assessment. I was turned down for LCWRA - Then I had a failed mandatory reconsideration followed by an aborted appeal.

Second UC50 form posted in August 2021 - Telephone assessment on 9th February 2022 - Today, 29th March 2022, I have been awarded LCWRA!

Don't give up, these things take time.

    Just to add - I have received a note that my back payment for LCWRA will be paid at the end of this month. Much quicker than I expected.

    Well done thanks for keeping us posted :) you had to wait six weeks for a decision? 😒 I had my work capability assessment on the 21st March was hoping for a quick decision having waited 7 months for an assessment! Hopefully will come through soon
