    If you have provided continuous Fit Notes then the LCWRA status should normally be backdated to your first Fit Note however the extra money for LCWRA is not payable until 4 to 5 months after that. The timing depends on when you first declared your health condition (supported by Fit Note within 7 days) and the dates of your monthly UC assessment periods.
