If you live in Scotland and currently get Personal Independence Payment (PIP) from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), your award will move to a new benefit called Adult Disability Payment from the end of August this year.
The new benefit will be delivered by Social Security Scotland and opens to new claimants in three council areas on March 21 - Dundee City, Perth and Kinross and the Western Isles.
It will have similar eligibility criteria to PIP, and also pays the same rates for the Daily Living and the Mobility component - currently between £23.70 and £152.15 each week. Payments will also be made every four weeks, so that amounts to between £94.80 and £608.60 each period.
