Our brand sites go deep on one benefit each. These guides answer the questions that sit between benefits: which one applies to you, how the rates compare, and what changes with age.
This year's main benefit changes, month by month, across Great Britain and Northern Ireland, including Scotland's own benefits and SEND in England. Each change shows whether it is in force or still a plan, where it applies and the official source.
Answer a few quick questions and see which benefits fit your situation - and where to start with each. Nothing is sent or stored.
Pick the benefits and rates that fit your household and see the weekly, monthly and yearly total - official 2026/27 figures, nothing sent or stored.
Enter the date on your letter and work out the last day to return a form, challenge a decision or appeal to a tribunal. Nothing sent or stored.
