    LCWRA has no end date. It's an ongoing award until a new decision says otherwise. Reviews are still suspended anyway so it's very unlikely that you'll be contacted anytime soon.

    No, you've already been found to have LCWRA.
    Edited because confused this thread with another one.

    LCWRA is the highest award you can get from the Work Capability Assessment so getting worse cannot improve the decision.

    Backlog due to delays to COVID and increase in claims.

    What is this please LCWRA

    It's part of Universal Credit and is the equivalent to ESA Support Group. However, it does pay more than ESA Support Group if your ESA doesn't include the Severe disability premium.
