    No money is paid for the first full three assessment periods for LCWRA.

    Assuming there are no gaps in your Fit Notes (it is the date they are given to UC that counts).

    My estimate of your waiting period:

    September/October: Partial Assessment Period, not included for waiting period

    October/November: AP 1

    November/December: AP 2

    December/January: AP 3

    January/February: Eligible for LCWRA payment

    March 3rd: First LCWRA paid.

    So up until today you would be owed 2 months LCWRA element if that is the result of your assessment.
