Premiums are extra amounts included in some benefits if you fit the criteria. The Enhanced Disability Premium is an extra £17.75 per week if you or your partner qualify and £25.35 per week if you both qualify.
If you or your partner is getting the enhanced rate of the daily living component of PIP, you can get an enhanced disability premium included in your Income Support, income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA), income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA) or Housing Benefit.
If you are getting contributory Employment and Support Allowance, you may also get a top-up of income-based income-related Employment and Support Allowance if you qualify for a premium. This will not apply if you get New Style Employment and Support Allowance.
If you are already getting full Housing Benefit, you will not get any more even if you qualify for a premium.
The Enhanced Disability Premium is not paid with Universal Credit.
