Hey lovely people,
I’ve just been classed as having LCWRA and was a bit confused and overwhelmed while trying to work out if I’d receive my payment this month or not.
I declared my health condition on June 6th and sent my first sick note starting June 14th. I am paid on the 13th of each month and receive my statement on the 9th.
I understand there’s the 3 month gap between medical evidence and your first payment, but I’m just a bit confused about whether I’ll get it this month (Oct) or not.
Thanks so so much ❤️

“ The amount you get is based on your circumstances from 7 September to 6 October 2021.”
I’m guessing this is my assessment period? Sorry I just get so flustered! ? -
AP is 7th to 6th of month.
You reported your condition in the May - June AP.
The waiting period is the three months June - July, July - August and Aug - Sept.
LCWRA payable for Sept - October so I would expect you to get it this month.
Your Fit Note starting on 14th June is actually a day late because you can only self certify for 7 days but hopefully this will not be a problem.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -

Aaaahh now someone else has told me that it’s from the date of the sick note and not the date of the health change so it won’t be until November.
I’m so confused ? -
