    The LCWRA element is not paid at all during the 3 month waiting period. It’s then paid from the 4th month after you reported your health condition. 
    Therefore in your case there’s no backdated money owed. 
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
