    I can't understand why you have submitted Fit Notes for 7 years before being awarded LCWRA.

    More information is needed in order to help.

    Was it a brand new claim or did you previously have LCW?

    If previously LCW did you trigger a review or did the DWP send you a review form out of the blue?

    What date did you report the health condition or change in health?

    Sorry for late reply. It's a brand new claim. I try so many times applying pip before but I didn't make it. I don't have job until now sense covid.

    I report my condition last 2018.and I just applying this year 2025. I been assist on March 6 2025 and luckily I grant for LCWRA Not the LCW.

    I can't make much sense of your timeline.

    If you applied for LCWRA/LCW this year then your waiting period will start from that date.

    Assuming Fit Notes have been submitted since that date without gaps, breaks etc then the standard waiting period will apply.

    LCWRA has a waiting period of three full assessment periods. No money is paid or subsequently owed for that period.

    You said you reported your condition in 2018 & applied for LCWRA/LCW this year.

    That means the waiting period would start from this year.

    Might you benefit from speaking to a trained benefits advisor?
