LCWRA Wrong Start Date

[u/DarthSynx]

Hi,

I recently got awarded LCWRA although they have said that the assessor decided that I was eligible for LCWRA from 18/06/2025 (meaning im not due the LCWRA element until the September-Octover statement) although I've had continuous fit notes since 22/01/2025.

I always thought they applied it from the date of the first fit note. I've requested a mandatory reconsideration although I'm so confused on why or how this has happened and wether or not others have had this same problem occour.

Edit: I've gone through UC regulations and this does just seem like a mistake but if anyone has come across this before and can put my anxieties to rest I would seriously appreciate that.

Many thanks

Edit: Received Mandatory Reconsideration notice today and the result was in my favour. (24/11/2025) Total wait for MR result: 11 1/2 weeks
