hello everyone,

I’ve recently been diagnosed with autism and I am currently receiving UC and LCWRA. I’m in the process of applying for pip as advised by my mental health nurse but don’t I have to report a health change in my UC journal about my autism diagnosis?

Also, would this health change trigger anything like a WCA? Any advice and answers welcome

Thank you

    Hi,

    As you are already getting LCWRA, there would be nothing to gain from reporting the new diagnosis to UC.

    You don't need to report a change to UC as you are getting LCWRA.
