    There's a full 3 month assessment period waiting time and the extra money is paid from the 4th month of your claim, starting from when you first reported your health condition.
    If you reported your health condition in February then you won't receive any extra money until either June or July, depending on the exact date you reported your health condition. No backdated money is owed.
