    What date exactly did you report your health condition/send your first fit note?

    If your payments are made on 17th of the month, as indicated in your opening post, your monthly AP runs from 11th to 10th. 

    Three months takes you from 20th October to 20th January. The LCWRA element is then payable for the next monthly assessment period (AP) that starts after 20th February which will be 11th March to 10th March. The first LCWRA payable would therefore be that paid on 17th March.
