Lcwra help please

Hi @EmmaG1406 . Can I kindly ask what the actual dates on the fit note you submitted on the 26th April were? I refer to the actual dates shown on the fit note you received from your GP? Is it my understanding that the first was dated 9th April - 12th May ? Can I ask what dates are shown on the following fit note you submitted on the 17th May? Is it dated the 13th May - 11th August? I ask because of my own confusion when submitting my own fit notes. My own fit note from GP was dated to the 14th July. I received a message from UC stating that I had until August to submit a further Fit note. My GP subsequently provided a further Fit note dated from the 15th July. Being super paranoid about there being any gaps in dates, I phoned UC to question if this was correct. I was advised that the fit note dated from the 15th July should have been dated from the 14th July, otherwise it would appear that I was fit for work one day. I was advised to contact my GP to explain this and request the date be changed to show from the 14th. My GP was happy to do so. Although there is an extended period of time given to submit fit notes, I was advised that the dates on them are relevant. If anything, it may be that there may be a discrepancy of one day 12-13 May which I'm sure can be rectified by your GP or a phone call to UC. My apologies if I've totally got the wrong end of things here and for my use of bold. It's purely been used for me to highlight dates for me to keep track of my own messaging.👍

Hi @poppy123456 , this is where I get really confused 🤯 . I received a message through my UC journal stating that my fit note would expire on the 14th July but that I had until the 4th August to report another. I get really confused with stuff like this and had my head started questioning if the 14th July was covered if they stated it expired on the 14th 🤯🤯. That's why I phoned them and was told I needed to request 'an extension ' on my fit note and that it needed to be dated from the 14th July. I get so concerned that I'm going to mess up with all of this!! I find the whole thing like a Krypton Factor Challenge !! Dealing with DWP and PIP can feel like entering one of those rooms on the Crystal Maze!! I apologise if I am just not grasping things, I seriously struggle with dates and sometimes with the wording of things.
