What money will I have?

We will ensure that you keep a minimum amount of income each week once you enter into a Deferred Payment Agreement, which is known as the Disposable Income Allowance and is set at £144 a week. This amount:

  • Also includes the standard weekly Personal Allowance of £30.15 to meet your personal needs while you are in long-term care
  • Is to make sure you have enough money to maintain your property

You can choose to use some of your £144 per week to pay back some of the money you are being loaned by the Council which would help reduce your level of debt.
