    Typo that should be Sept 2022. There are delays in some areas and some are waiting quite sometime for an assessment, longer than several months. The lose of your form hasn’t helped matters here either. 

    You will likely need an assessment before a decision can be made. Most are through telephone. All you can do really is wait. 

    If you’re found to have LCWRA you will receive an extra £354.28/month, which is due to be increased from April this a year.
