In recent weeks, the UK Government has confirmed that some benefits for millions of households will increase as of next month.
This means that the State Pension and benefits delivered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) including Universal Credit (UC), Personal Independence Payment (PIP) and Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA) will increase by 3.1 per cent on April 11 2022.
Updates to the rates were signed off last month in the House of Commons and will change for those receiving State Pension or benefits through the DWP in Scotland as well as England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
