Millions are missing out on a £400 monthly cash boost
State Pensioners could be missing out on a £400 cash boost. The extra cash, for those eligible, could be particularly welcome as an additional half a million older people are expected to fall into the tax net following a freeze on the standard Personal Tax Allowance threshold and the uprating of State Pensions for the new financial year starting on April 6.
He explained: "Attendance Allowance is a weekly benefit that is paid to people aged over pensionable age that helps those who have difficulty with their bodily functions, and who need support or supervision to avoid danger to themselves or others. “People over the age of 65 are especially likely to be missing out on their entitlements. We urge anyone who is unsure of what they are entitled to, to do a benefit calculation to see if there is anything they can claim.”
