Disability

Tens of thousands of households are entitled to a refund from the Government after missing out on tax credits for disabled children – those affected may be owed up to £4,368 for the current tax year, but you won't be able to backdate refunds.

Around 500,000 disabled people are "expected to lose out" when the Disability Living Allowance (DLA) is scrapped, a report claims today.

Half a million people are set to lose their disability benefits under government plans, it has emerged.
