Hi I've just made a new claim for uc today after separating from my partner on the old joint claim I had limited capability to work and work related activity award and it doesn't seem to show that it's on although one person said they could see it when I've selected 'my work plan' it says created by agent today jobs I am not required to apply for jobs at this time activies I do not have to do any work related activities at this time I'm going down the job center tomorrow to see if I can get it sorted out as I need to verify my bank account too.

    A new claim shouldn’t have been needed. It should have just been a change of circumstances reported through your other journal. 
    If you kept a copy of the decision letter for LCWRA then show them this at the appointment.

    Hi I've just checked it was a change in circumstance so everything should still be the same? I can't see my limited capability to work and work related activity award as there's no statement on yet

    You said you started a new claim so there won't be any details of your LCWRA award.

    I've went to the bottom of my journal and it says change in circumstance also my login details are the same as before so it can't be a new claim

    You won't see the LCWRA element anyway until you receive your statement. I think when you go from joint to single claim everything is cleared from your journal. Your claimant commiments should just say "you agree to report any changes"

    Sounds perfectly normal for someone that was found to have LCWRA. As i advised, you won't see the LCWRA element until you have your first statement as a single person.
