Prisoners on remand - Introduction
Check what benefits you can get if you are a prisoner on remand
- Last reviewed 03 September 2024
Introduction
Entitlement to most benefits ceases or is suspended while you are on remand.
Benefits owed
Most benefits are paid in arrears, so you may be owed some benefits payments. You should inform the office that pays your benefit of your change of circumstances and request the arrears be paid to you or sent to someone who is managing your money.
