Five council areas named as first to get Pension Age Disability Payment.
People over State Pension age living in five Scottish local authorities will be the first in the country eligible to claim a new disability benefit from October 21. Pension Age Disability Payment will replace new claims for Attendance Allowance for people living in Argyll & Bute, Highland, Aberdeen City, Orkney and Shetland .
The disability benefit will be delivered by Social Security Scotland and paid every four weeks, which means you could receive either £290.60 or £434.20 every pay period. The Scottish Government said Pension Age Disability Payment was designed with the people who will be eligible for the benefit and those who support them. Improvements include a streamlined process for people to nominate a third-party representative who can support them to communicate with Social Security Scotland.
However, she added: “If you think you might be eligible for support right now, I encourage you to apply for Attendance Allowance from the Department for Work and Pensions.
