Budgeting Loans
What you could get
The lowest amount you can borrow is 拢100. You could get up to:
- 拢348 if you鈥檙e single
- 拢464 if you have a partner
- 拢812 if you or your partner claim Child Benefit
How much you could get depends on whether you:
- can pay the loan back
- have savings of more than 拢1,000 (拢2,000 if you or your partner are 63 or over)
- are paying back an existing Budgeting Loan or Crisis Loan
How you鈥檒l be paid
Budgeting loans are paid into the same account as your benefit. If you want to be paid into a different account, either:
- change the account your benefit is paid into before you apply
- apply using the paper form (this takes longer than applying online)
