LCWRA ignored.. was created by xxxxxx
Hi All,
My partner has had to have the enforced migration from contrib ESA [support group] to UC
A letter came yesterday regarding the amount of her payment [via her social worker] but the fact she has LCWRA has been completely ignored, and the letter states that she will just get the "standard" rate of UC MINUS the ESA and there is no mention of transitional protection either.
What to do??

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

Hi
We have been told that there is a team who are awarding the transactional payments and they have a backlog of at least a couple of weeks - so it should be applied separately. The only way to query is to go on the journal and ask about it.

I was in a very similar position recently,however Citizens Advice Help to Claim Service assisted me.
I wrote a journal message to "Payment" and within 2 hours it was all sorted and corrected.
Everyone is different but don't be afraid to use journal message system as this is what it's there for.
Good Luck

I also understand that there are delays in including the LCWRA
and the transactional protection. I think that this is because DWP don't have sufficient staff to process the numbers of people migrating.
