PIP payments can be awarded to those who struggle to manage money - check if you can claim

PIP payments can be issued to those who are suffering with long term physical or mental health conditions. To be eligible, these conditions must have left claimants with difficulties with getting around (or both) for at least three months.
To determine if a claimant is eligible, they will likely need to be assessed by an independent healthcare professional following a claim.
So long as a claimant is eligible for PIP, they’ll usually be paid once every four weeks.
A decision letter will be issued to claimants laying out when the first payment will come through, and what day of the week they’ll be paid going forward.
Should a payment date fall on a bank holiday, claimants will usually be paid on the first day before the bank holiday.
