Lcw confusion

cpnan

Hi,
I had my wca 2 weeks ago. Today I have received 2 letters in my journal - the first stating I have limited capability for work, the second stating I have limited capability for work and work related activity and that I will get back pay paid to my account for aug 21 - feb 22.
I am so confused. The first letter scared me to death and caused huge mental distress. The second has just baffled me. I don’t know which group I am in and if it’s the lcwra why would back pay be only up until February?

I really appreciate any input on this. I have left messages in my journal but no reply as yet.

There isn’t enough information to comment meaningfully. I think you’ll have to wait until you get a response from your message to UC.

Thank you.
Yes, it’s a single claim and both letters are in my name.

The second letter says ‘we owe you some money’ at the top and then goes on to say ‘we’ve decided you’re entitled to £xxx from aug to feb. This is because you have been awarded limited capability for work and work related activity’.

Hello again,
Universal credit have been no help whatsoever on journal or help line!

Today I have been paid lcwra back pay from dec 21 -feb 22 which is correct regarding award date after 3 month waiting period.

I’m just baffled as to why the backpay only goes to feb and not June.

Can anyone shed any light on this please?

many thanks.

You will need to put a message onto your journal under the payment section and ask why you've only received it up until Feb.
