How much can I get?
The amount will vary depending on when you applied for PIP, or how long you have already been receiving PIP for.
This means someone who currently receives the standard daily living component rate of £60.00 per week could be bumped up to the enhanced rate of £89.60.
As the payments are backdated, some may be due back payments of around £8,060.60 from April 6, 2016.
For someone who did not receive the daily living component, or had their PIP claim turned down, this means they could potentially be looking at backdated standard rate payments worth around £14,963.
