Morning everyone 
I handed my first sick note on the 11th January, I’ve had my assessment so if I’m awarded when would my payments start, I normally get my universal credit on the 18th of the month.
many thanks

    And would you have any idea how long people are waiting for decisions and for it to appear in their journals

    Yes I do ? I’m ready to appeal should I be put in lcw as I can’t physically work ? certainly not out of choice, I was gutted when I finally had to make the decision to leave my job which I absolutely loved, because I couldn’t do it anymore.

    @Tb2830 it's just from the title of the post, it made me think you wasn't... Aww it's rubbish that you had to give up a job you loved. So good luck with your claim xx
