PIP is rising: How much more will payment be from April?

In comparison, the mobility component will be £71.05 a week for the higher rate and £26.95 for the lower rate.

People can claim both components if they need them and they can get any combination of the different rates.

If someone is paid both higher amounts they would get £172.75 a week, £691 a month or £8,983 a year.

Claimants can get PIP even if they’re working, have savings or are getting most other benefits.
