Hi
I am on a basic pension with pc , last year due to my illness I tried to get pip but was turned down , so because of my age 65 applied for AA and was awarded the higher rate ( just come thought ) my friend has said I should now be entitled to claim the disability part of PC I am not sure what she means any advice .

its the severe disability premium and the enhanced disability premium.
you need form IS10 and it should be backdated to the earliest date that you received both pension credit AND AA
its around £77 a week for both0
