How to complete an Attendance Allowance Form

[@neilconlon1298]

I would like to say a big thank you for this video I followed your instructions when filling out the book and have found out today that my dad has been granted the full amount we are really pleased and wanted to give you credit for this

[@kayalder]

It’s now 2024 and five weeks ago I used this video to guide me when assisting my Mum to apply. Today she received a letter telling her she has been awarded the full payment. We can’t thank you enough for taking your time in making this video, we would not have been able to get this without your help. In fairness she should have applied a few years ago but was always reluctant until now. Thank you so much, you are changing lives.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Glad it helped!

[@aileenhindley5964]

Very helpful - 4 years later but still relevant.

My Mother followed your advice and is extremely grateful.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Wonderful! Glad i could help.

[@davidtinacotton]

before i was told about this video i was stressed at the 33 page AA form. Thanks to you i filled it in no issue ,knew what to put ,funny you dont realise how much you have to write but once you know what they need you have lots to say!

[@laurencerusson62]

Thank you for taking the time to do this video explain things simply and get to the point credit to you.

[@aileenhindley5964]

Thank you. We watched your video before submitting my husband’s application for Attendance Allowance. We printed off a copy to read it through and prepare ourselves before requesting the form. I rang up on 08/01/2024, the form arrived the next day. My husband’s first payment arrived in his bank on 03/03/2024, he was awarded the higher rate. This will make a big difference to us since our income wasn’t quite covering our out goings. I just want to encourage other people in a similar position to us, just do it! I just want to add that we were not applying under the special rules so his claim was not fast tracked.

[@margaretfleming3554]

Thank you so much for posting this! With your help my husband filled in the form for me, sent in my most recent medical reports and I’ve heard today I have been awarded Attendance Allowance at the higher rate. Your post was invaluable at pointing out how best to answer the questions and keep the information to the salient points. We are both very grateful.

[@valburtand9859]

Just wanted to say a really big thank you for doing this video. I watched all the way through twice and made lots of notes to help me remember when filling the form in. I applied for attendance allowance 5 years ago and got turned down flat. My condition is exactly the same but I decided after watching your video to try reapplying which I did using all the tips you give. Long story short I submitted my application and 2-weeks later I got an acceptance letter back telling me that I am able to full attendance allowance day and night. Thank you once again and anyone reading this even though this video is about 45 minutes long it is well worth sitting through it and doing your form how exactly as he says. I'm proof that it works a treat. This new amount of money will help me pay for help I really need now.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Hi Val, im really glad to hear this was helpful and you were able to get the right award for your conditions. Thank you for your kind and detailed comment

Thank you Stuart. I had no idea how to fill out this form for my elderly father and what information to include. I had kept it too brief. This video clearly guides you through the form and is greatly appreciated. Keep up the good work.

[@sprogsmummy]

Thank you so much for this video, I used it to complete the application for my dad and have just received confirmation that he is entitled.

[@sandraleech6177]

A very big thank you Stuart, I have been awarded the higher rate of attendance allowance. I really appreciate the emphasis on detailed information you advised upon. I really broke down each and every aspect of my inability to care for myself, how I needed help in all most every aspect of daily life due to my chronic diseases and very poor mobility. I have received payment from early September 2022 to 20th December 2022? It took a long time as It wasn’t possible for various agencies to visit us in the time frame given in which to return the claim forms. Therefore we started logging each day as it occurred. We had to add additional information, probably anA4 sheet for each question. I felt like giving in , but as you said there is no limit as to the extra information you can give to clarify how you personally are affected by your illnesses . I cannot quite believe it. Thanks again. This will help us so much as we have been purchasing equipment/ aids constantly.

So I'm doing their shopping and join him in his walks as I'm worried he will have a bad fall. Thanks for this video very useful and informative.

[@yesyoureright]

Thank you so much after applying for my elderly mother by watching your video she has now received the allowance. and now hopefully I can apply to be a carer for her. On another note this system that has been placed for these benefits is truly horrendous. God help people on universal credit I've seen work coaches literally treat people like they're rabid dogs and some claimants that should not be in any Jobcentre as they're unbelievably ill and are told they're fit for work after overturning there fit notes by a private paid company.

You are very welcome :)

[@Disanium]

Thank you! Went through the form and through the video bit by bit as I progressed from question to question and this video is very helpful, took me a few days to complete. Can't explain how much it helped... Drudging through old forms/letters and so on was a pain and took me ages, medical records, reports and things I thought were lost and you soon discover missed things and stuff people pass off as nothing and in the end of the day it isn't; like the falls and stumbles. Copying all said evidence and making a copy of the finished form for my own records is recommended. In truth, the Q50 extension on information you can add is only that one page (as you stated). I had to make several copies of that, about 11 pages to be added on so for people without scanners or printers also making a 1:1 copy is going to be hard for them, but simple lined paper is great. Now I'd advise people as you stated to apply through the phone if possible as you will get back dated upon being granted the Allowance from the day you ordered the form. Again a thousand thank you!!! Stay safe.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Thank you for your kind words and points and i'm very glad i could help. Good point about making a few copies of Q50, if you have a lot of info, copy it before you write on it. If you have 2 minutes please share the video to help get the support to those who need it the most. 🙏

I live in FL & applied 4yrs ago for disability but IRS doesn’t show I have enough earned working credits! Well, stage 3 aggressive cancer & daily radiation, chemo, etc kinda did me in, for starters, then side effects started & I’m now in wheelchair or in bed 24/7 bcuz permanent nerve damages from cancer, & can no longer sit/stand/walk more than few steps unassisted. Years of necessary medical expenses have wiped out my savings too! I’ve worked most of my life & filed taxes, BUT having rental properties & trucking biz & Road mechanic biz, my accountant advised me not to pay myself or claim taxes bc it’d be awash!? Now I’ve apparently acted on bad advice!! 🤷🏻‍♀️🤬 TY for ANY helpful advice, BLESSINGS!!

Thank you for your helpful video. I have one very straight forward question regarding the signatures. The form has 3 boxes for a signature, 18, 59 and 62. The applicant is in a residential care home and the home manager has signed sections 59 and 62. My wife has Power of Attorney and has signed section 18. My question is should my wife also sign section 62? I rang DWP and they said they didn’t know how to fill the form in and suggested Citizens Advice or Age Concern. Any advice or help would be appreciated

If your wife has power of attorney and the applicant is unable to sign as they do not have mental capacity, then your wife should sign it.

Thank you for taking the time to give us this information. Wonder if anyone knows if someone claims carers's allowance for me, will it be deducted off my Attendance allowance.?

[@StuartMcGoo]

Hi, Carer's Allowance is an Income Benefit so it should not affect your Attendance Allowance payment as it is not Income based. However if you are receiving Pension Credit and get the Severe Disability Premium element added to it (as you get Attendance Allowance) then this could be reduced by the amount claimed in Carers Allowance.

[@kpzcbttp]

Hiya Stuart thanks very much for this tutorial.I will let you know if I am successful.I am also after a mobility allowance as I am exforces.Can you help please as I am after transport.

[@StuartMcGoo]

Hi Michael - there is no mobility component for Attendance Allowance / People over 65. If you do not already have DLA/PIP mobility in place before you reach that age then you will not be able to get a mobility payment. It is not a part of Attendance Allowance. That said, if you are struggling with being able to find personal disability specific transport and you are still able to drive it might be worth you speaking with your local SSAFA representative as they may be able to assist with that.

Since then his legs are completely weak and give way pretty much all the time. He constantly needs me around for support. Do you think he will still qualify with these gaps in medical history?

[@dunki-dunki-dawg]

I care for my mom who used to get the higher rate. Because I don't need to attend to her through the night as she has a commode next to her and her phone she gets the lower rate. I am however worried she will be refused this yr because there are changes and a new government. My mom cannot stand for any long period of time and takes strong painkillers, antidepressants for depression and anxiety. Her spine is curved and she cannot stand upright and needs help with washing, preparing food and lots of other tasks.

[@StuartMcGoo]

If she gets out of bed or is awake for more than 20 minutes at night on the majority of nights, whether you attend to her or not, then she may qualify for the higher rate. There are currently no proposals to change Attendance Allowance and it is very unlikely that it will be included in the forthcoming green paper on benefits expected in the spring. If the above applies to her then I would request an upgrade from Attendance Allowance form as soon as possible.

Thank you for your time. Do you know about the procedure when a DWP visiting officer visits a claimant in his or her home to fill the Attendance Allowance form for them?

[@StuartMcGoo]

Yes and this can be very useful for some people, though, as I mention in the video, contacting your local services is often the best port of call as depending on the area the waiting lists for visits from the DWP visiting service can vary and the service you access (Age UK/Macmillan/Social Srrvices etc.) can send in a direct referral to the DWP if required/appropriate.

[@Bigchurchmusic]

@@StuartMcGoo the DWP arranged the visit in 10 days, so that's good. Generally speaking is the DWP officer allowed to help in any way?

[@StuartMcGoo]

@@Bigchurchmusic They help but they are not as inclined to extract information that the claimant may not see as pertinent (but is), where as an Age UK or specialist support officer is more likely too. Many Age UK offices are classed as an "alternative office" for the DWP so get extra support with filling in forms and are able to provide very detailed advice if someone is unsure whether they might qualify.

Hi Kelly, apologies for my delay in responding to you. Unfortunately I am not in a position to help you with this personally but I think it would be a really good idea for me to create a step by step video on how to fill in this form as many people such as yourself find it hard work to fill in. As it is only a short form it wont take me long to do, but due to my other commitments I probably wont be able to get chance to do so this week. That said I will do my very best to squeeze it in and will let you know as soon as it is uploaded. Also it is worth going to your local authority website to see if there are any other organisations local to you that might be able to help you with the form. Most services are over-stretched and have long waiting lists unfortunately, especially at this time of year, but you should not give up.

Yes go to www.gov.uk/attendance-allowance and you can download the form.
