I am receiving LCWRA, am I automatically transferred to Adult Disability Allowance, or do I have to apply for that?

    LCWRA is part of Universal Credit. It has nothing to do with Adult disability Payment. (ADP) this is for those living in Scotland only and has replaced PIP and DLA. 
    If you live in Scotland you will need to apply for it, otherwise it’s PIP you need to claim. Being awarded LCWRA doesn’t automatically entitle you to a disability benefit.

    Welcome to the community @fawaza, thanks for your question. To help others who might also be in a similar situation, I've just moved your post over into our Universal Credit category. 

    Is there anything else we can help with? If you'd like to have a look around, one of the best places to get to know other members is the Coffee Lounge :)
