A successful claim for Attendance Allowance is worth either £68.10 or £101.75 each week.
Alba Party MP Neale Hanvey has urged the Department for Work and Pensions to “make an assessment of the adequacy of the requirement for people to wait six months following the onset of invalidity before they can claim Attendance Allowance”.
However, the DWP Minister added: “Claims made under the Special Rules for those with less than 12 months to live do not have to satisfy the six-month qualifying period.” It’s important to note that Attendance Allowance is not means-tested either, so, unlike Pension Credit, income from any retirement earnings or savings will not be taken into account.
It’s important to note that this list is not a checklist for claiming Attendance Allowance, it is intended to help people understand what type of conditions are being supported. However, if you need extra support during the day or night due to a long-term illness, disability or health condition, you should check out the official eligibility guidance on the GOV.UK website here.How much could I get on Attendance Allowance?
