Understanding PIP Payment Rates 2024/2025
PIP consists of two main components: the Daily Living component and the Mobility component. Each component has two levels of payment: a standard rate and an enhanced rate, reflecting different degrees of need. These rates are updated annually, typically in April.
Here are the exact Personal Independence Payment (PIP) rates for the 2024/2025 financial year, showing both weekly and four-weekly payment amounts:
| PIP Element(s) | Weekly Rate 2024/2025 | Four-Weekly Rate 2024/2025 |
|---|---|---|

| Mobility Enhanced Rate | £75.75 | £303.00 |
| Mobility Standard Rate | £28.70 | £114.80 |
How PIP Payments are Determined
The amount of PIP you receive is determined by an assessment of how your condition affects your daily life and your ability to get around. You could be eligible for one component or both, and at either the standard or enhanced rate for each. For example:
- If you have significant difficulties with everyday tasks, you might qualify for the Daily Living Enhanced Rate.
- If your ability to move around is severely limited, you could be eligible for the Mobility Enhanced Rate.
- It's common for individuals to receive a combination of rates, such as the Daily Living Standard Rate and the Mobility Enhanced Rate, or only one component if the other does not meet the eligibility criteria.
The total payment you receive is the sum of the rates for the components you are awarded. Payments are typically made every four weeks directly into your bank account.
