Work Capability Assesment WCA How to complete the form Pt 1 Basic Information

[@mamandmason7094]

Newly partially sighted this was great help

[@DrWho-vc2go]

I was fortunate when I applied through my work coach, for LC&WR. He helped me a great deal. I was able to get a telephone appointment, and the application itself was done over the phone. The process, is by far easier and better, than applying for PIP, which to be honest is pretty much a con.

[@StuartMcGoo]

I'm glad you had a positive experience

[@cristinaluppino575]

Hi good afternoon to everyone if I may ask a quick question I've been on LCWRA since last year and when the time comes would I be able to have a telephone interview assessment do we have that option thankyou ?? ​@@StuartMcGoo

When time comes for me to migrate to UC..Does UC know that I am in support group of ESA?..Will they know that I've recently had a PiP assessment and been awarded this ?

Hello Stuart! Thanks so much for this! I have to fill mine in and it’s daunting. Quick question : is it possible to send the evidence electronically? I’m asking cos I don’t have a printer and (also regarding delays) I’m still waiting on that info which I had to request as a subject access request.

[@StuartMcGoo]

As far as I am aware it is not, but it depends on your Job Centre Plus as it usually goes through them.

[@Fletch_18]

Hi Stu. To get into LCWRA do you need to get 15 points in just one section? or 15 points in every section. ? I score 15 in the first and second sections … Thank you 😊

[@StuartMcGoo]

You need to score 15 points or more in total, across all sections.

Can I write my Husband name in Healthcare professionals,friends,relatives ,Carers.Is it okay. Thank you for helping and guiding us

[@StuartMcGoo]

Yes, if he is providing support or care for your daily living activities

[@Non1sence123]

I have knee arthritis. Can i claim for lcwra?

[@StuartMcGoo]

I could not say - Are you signed off as unfit to work? Does it effect both knees, or just the one? You would best to speak to an advisor at the CAB

[@deborahjane68]

I Have Progressive MS. I get Full Pip, An Motabilty Car. I now have to send the uc 50 form in, i am so stressed snd worried.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Try not to worry too much, just make sure you put plenty of detail into the form and get help with it if you can.

[@scotsbimbo]

My son has a brain injury and the person helping him fill out the form has taken ill. Can we request an extension?

[@StuartMcGoo]

For certain, very good reason to request one.

[@scotsbimbo]

@@StuartMcGoo Thank you he is worried sick

[@joannewall5499]

Do they do this electronically or by post

[@SNAFUferret]

It's an entirely paper based process and grossly inefficient. DWP are yet to cone into the 21st century!

[@StuartMcGoo]

You can fill out a PDF electronic version if you have a computer and then access to a printer (as seen in this video) but it is usually done on paper.

[@joannewall5499]

because you were signed off as sick. You need to be assessed for the period that you were not working.
