How to claim

You do not have to claim disability premium. If you’re eligible, it’s automatically added to your:

  • Income Support
  • Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
  • Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
  • housing benefit

Contact your local Jobcentre Plus if it has not been paid.

If you disagree with a decision

You can challenge a decision about your claim. This is called asking for mandatory reconsideration.
