Which PIP rate do I need to join the Scheme?

You need to receive the higher rate mobility part of PIP to join the Scheme, or one of these other allowances:

• Higher rate mobility part of Disability Living Allowance (DLA)
• Enhanced rate mobility part of Adult Disability Payment (Scotland)
• Higher rate mobility component of Child Disability Payment (Scotland)
• War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement (WPMS)
• Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP)

You need to have at least 12 months left on your allowance when you apply. If you have less, you’ll need to wait until your allowance provider renews your allowance.

You cannot apply to join the Motability Scheme if you receive a lower rate or component of mobility allowance.

If things change and you’re awarded the higher rate mobility part of PIP, you can apply to join the Scheme.
