Hi, 

I have received uc for a few months now. Anyway on the 4th January I had a mini stroke which stopped me from working full time. I currently work part-time. Anyway on the 5t Jan I sent off my sick note to uc and got awarded lcwra on the 18th February. It is now end of May and I still haven't received any payments regards lcwra. I have spoken to the uc helpline and even though  the guy was really nice. I didn't get to the bottom of it. Do you know when I will actually receive my payments as my work is now messing up my wages and leaving me very short. Is this a normal period to wait for the first payment? My usual uc payment date is on the 22nd of every month.
