There are 21 million people in Britain not claiming benefits they qualify for
Consumer rights campaigner and personal finance guru Martin Lewis is urging people to check their entitlement to certain Department for Work and Pensions benefits, with almost a third of the population not claiming thousands of pounds a year they are eligible to receive.
Universal Credit: 1.25 million missing £10,000 per year Universal Credit, and the legacy benefits it is replacing, was increased by 6.7 per cent across the board in April, which will help people cover various living costs that have ballooned in the past year. This means that a single person on Universal Credit has received a £405 annual boost to their payments.
Commonly, people with Parkinson's, dementia, or terminal illness will qualify for these payments, which can scale up to £5,644 per year for the most ill. Manchester City Council will reduce a Council Tax bill by up to 82.5 per cent, leaving you just 17.5 per cent of the original bill to pay. However, there are earning rules that this is based on, you can find out more on the council's website.
MSE said: "You must care for someone who usually gets Attendance Allowance, or some on personal independence payment or disability living allowance; spend 35+ hours a week helping with everyday tasks such as washing or cooking; and earn under £151/wk or have a low state pension."
