Income support is paid to certain people who are not expected to look for work. These include carers and certain lone parents. It is intended to provide for basic living expenses and can be paid on top of other benefits such as carer's allowance. You can also get money to help with mortgage payments.
If you want basic information on income support see our factsheets below.
If you want more detailed information see our Disability Rights Handbook available to buy at www.disabilityalliance.org/drh35.htm. This gives you information about all the rules for IS including claiming, calculation, housing costs and how to appeal against a decision to remove your benefit.
