Brits in receipt of a benefit from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) could increase their payments by as much as £633 a month. Moreover, people who get Personal Independence Payment (PIP) may not realise they could be entitled to more cash. The DWP has reported that over 3.7 million people across Great Britain are currently claiming Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
In addition, 476,295 people are receiving Adult Disability Payment (ADP), which has replaced PIP in Scotland. Both of these payments aim to assist individuals with disabilities, long-term illnesses or physical or mental health conditions by covering additional daily living or mobility expenses.

People on PIP might be able to increase monthly payments by as much as £633 (Image: Getty)
A successful claim for PIP or ADP can yield between £29.20 and £187.45 per week, equating to £116.80 or £749.80 every four weeks.
The significant difference in payments is due to the various combinations of the daily living and mobility component rates that a claimant could be awarded.

A person could receive the highest rate of both components, resulting in the maximum payment of £749.80 every four weeks, or the standard rate of both, amounting to £412.40.

However, as highlighted by the Daily Record, many individuals not receiving the maximum PIP or ADP may not realise that if their condition worsens and they require more support with daily living or mobility, they might be eligible for an increase in monthly payments by up to £633.
New data released by the DWP reveals that between January 31 and April 30 this year, 35,000 people on PIP reported a change in their circumstances. Of this number, approximately 28,000 were processed during the three-month period.

An increase in payments from the standard rate to the higher could potentially boost annual income to £9,747.40 over the financial year 2025/26.

It's crucial to note that this £633 calculation is based on an individual currently receiving only the standard rate of the mobility component at £29.20 per week (£116.80 per pay period). If they report a change in their circumstances to the DWP, undergo a review and are awarded the enhanced rate for both the daily living and mobility components (£749.80 in total).
In another scenario, someone currently receiving the standard rate for both components (£412.40 per 4-week pay period) who reports a change and is awarded the enhanced rate for both the daily living and mobility components (£749.80), would see an increase of £337.40 each month, equating to some £4,386 over the forthcoming year.
PIP and ADP payment rates 2025/26
PIP and ADP will be paid at the following amounts per week depending on your circumstances.
Daily living
Standard rate: £73.90
Enhanced rate: £110.40
Mobility
Standard rate: £29.20
Enhanced rate: £77.05
Reporting a change
The PIP new claim and review process is based on how your condition, long-term illness or disability affects you - not the actual condition itself. The DWP makes this distinction clear in the current edition of the online PIP Handbook.
The guidance on GOV.UK explains: “As the assessment principles consider the impact of a claimant’s condition on their ability to live independently and not the condition itself, claimants with the same condition may get different outcomes. The outcome is based on an independent assessment and all available evidence.”
