Hi guys, can I ask if your on limited capability of work for few years but now want to work and found a job, what is the process, just phone in to tell them?. I use to hand in fit notes few years back but then did not need to and was put on limited capability of work and Universal Credit, now my circumstances change in just few days where am starting a job, I hope I dont need to provide anything or do anything apart from telling jobcenter?

    Hello @Excalibur123. Sorry your post appears to have been missed.

    Congratulations on your job. Have you started work now? 

    On the day you begin work, you need to log onto your UC account and go to: Homepage, Report a Change, Work and Earnings. 
    Here it'll ask you a few details about when you went back to work and your expected hours and wage. 

    If your conditions have not changed you do not need to update anything else. If you feel your health or conditions have improved to no longer qualify for LCW/LCWRA you could update your health too but it's worth getting advice before doing this. It is possible to claim LCW/LCWRA and work.
