If you were not previously getting a WA (which you will not have been unless you have children on the claim or a partner with LCW/LCWRA) then you should ask UC to recalculate your previous payments from February to now include the WA. This should result in you being owed arrears.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -
