    You would not have the three month wait. The LCWRA should be paid from the start of the UC claim (although sometimes there is an administrative delay).
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.

    This thread is a year old and the member hasn't been active for about the same time.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
