Budgeting loan & DLA
Options

Posts: 54 Forumite
Hello all,
I am in receipt of DLA and I am looking for a loan an dlooked at the loans that the government offer. They offer a 'budgeting' loan, which looks the most suitable for me.
However, am I able to apply for this as the only benefit I am in receipt of is DLA, not any other.
Also, in regars to applying for this (if I can), how do I go about it?
Many Thanks

If DLA is your only benefit you are not able to get a Budgeting loan.
