New PIP, DLA, Carer's Allowance and Attendance Allowance rates as DWP confirms increase

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has confirmed that there will be new payment rates kicking in from April 2023.

Chancellor Jeremy Hunt confirmed these changes in his Autumn Statement in November 2022, reports Birmingham Live. All DWP and HMRC benefits will be getting a 10.1 per cent rise in the upcoming financial year, based on the September 2022 inflation rate that was published before the decision was made.

These benefits will include disability allowances such as Adult Disability Payments, Attendance Allowance and Carer's Allowance.
