Hi and welcome to the community 

The payment will be paid FROM 14th July hopefully all payments should be made by end July 

You will receive £326 in July and further £324 in the autumn

Do you get income related ESA?

I get the lwrca supported group element 

janer1967

Is it esa or uc 

Reason we ask is that it must be a means tested benefit you get to be eligible 

Sorry I presumed.ypu claimed uc saying you get the lcwra 

If its esa you.get then you only get the.payment if your esa is income based if its entirely contributions based you won't get.the payment

The LCWRA group is the UC equivalent of the ESA

But some people on esa won't get the payment even those in support group, unless their esa is income related. Those who only get contribution esa or new style won't get this payment

I'm very aware of that but lots of members dint make it clear and get confused 

I was only asking so I could advise correctly if you would be eligible 

No need to use bold text I can read

Yes indeed it is but the question is, which benefit exactly do you claim? Is it UC, New style ESA or Income Related ESA? If it's New style ESA then you will not be entitled to the £650 payment.

Looking back at your previous threads i see that it's UC you're claiming. https://forum.scope.org.uk/discussion/92216/lcwra-backdated-payment#latest

This means that you'll be entitled to the first payment of £326 paid anytime between 14th - 31st July.

Hello poppy I hope you’re well
And I receive the lcwra support element Does this mean I will be entitled  to the £326 patent. Made on the 14th of July 2022?

poppy123456

For the avoidance of doubt, it's not called the LCWRA support element. As it's UC you're claiming then it's called the LCWRA element of UC.

As advised because it's UC you're claiming then yes you will receive the payment.

It will be paid between 14th -31st July.

janer1967

Thanks for clarification poppy it would have been so much easier if op just said if it was uc or esa they claimed 

Seems they are still getting confused 
Support group is for esa claimants and lcwra is for uc 

There is no such thing as lcwra support element.

Just pointing out so other members don't get confused

The LCWRA is irrelevant. You're getting UC, that's all that matters. That qualifies you for the payment.
Payments will be made from 14th July, not on 14th July.
