If his PIP includes Enhanced daily living then your UC should have included the high rate disabled child element, which is £456.89/month.You should be paid everything you’re owed but it may take several weeks for them to pay it.
Are you also aware that your child element and disabled child element will end on 31st August this year, even if he remains in full time education.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help. -

Hi so update is I got 1st payment of disbilty on son universal child element but haven't had any message on journal about it or anything else if been back dating or even payment they made etc so I don't know what going on I keep
Ask on journal if there any thing back of dis -makers? Nothing but response off them taken almost week to get back any message I send there no very use full in communication on journals as take to long hear anything at all? -
Money owed is paid as a separate payment and it’s not unusual for it to take quite a few weeks to pay it.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
