People on highest PIP or DLA awards set for monthly payment rise to over £691 next April
Millions of people across the UK claiming disability benefits from the Department for Work and Pensions and Social Security Scotland are set for a bumper payment boost next year following the Autumn Statement.
At present, claimants can receive between £97.80 and £627.60 every payment period. This means a monthly increase of up to £63.60 is on the way for some of the UK’s most vulnerable households, however, it’s important to be aware that those figures represent the minimum award possible - a single award for the lower rate mobility only, and the highest awards for both the daily care and mobility components.
