Passported benefits are a powerful tool to provide extra support to groups that are especially vulnerable, such as single parents and households with a member with a disability. Regional and local governments also use passported benefits to align their welfare systems to their social and economic policies.
There are numerous passported benefits across the UK and their regulations change between the different countries and councils. Therefore, more often than not, people struggle to find out their benefits entitlements or they are not aware that many of these benefits even exist. While most of the benefits calculators include means-tested, contributory and non-contributory benefits, we make sure that our customers are also aware of the passported benefits they are entitled to.
