Put your details into the Turn2us online benefit checker.

If you are renting, you can find out the LHA (local housing allowance - housing benefit) rate for your rental property on the LHA direct website.

What DLA rate has your son been awarded?
Do you work?
What benefits does your family already receive?

You can get a benefits estimate by filling in the calculators below

nanny,
