Strange question? was created by Judy
My friend has applied for Limited Capability For Work, UC. He's answered all their questions, filled in all the forms etc then he was sent an email by them asking if he'd had any help since he'd applied for LCWRA. He said No, but what an odd question anyone know why he was asked this? They must be looking at his case because they've contacted his doctor according to the surgery.

Hi Judy

It would depend on which descriptor applied to your friend in getting placed in the LCWRA group, did your friend ask for a copy of the assessors report called a UC85 when they were placed in the LCWRA?

DWP may be looking to see if the descriptor still applied.

He hasn't had an assessment yet and is not placed anywhere yet. He's been waiting to hear if he'll get an assessment or if he'll be placed in a group.

Hi Judy,

As Gary advised, they may have been going through descriptors and wanted clarification. My friend got a phone call to get clarifications about a couple of descriptors. They put him in LCWRA over that call - he was moving from ESA SG to UC.

I hope your friend gets a positive outcome soon.

Best wishes,

Josh
