Benefit cap
The benefit cap is a limit on the total amount of benefit you can get. It applies to most people aged 16 or over who have not reached State Pension age.
Read more about the benefit cap on the government’s website.
The amount your household gets from some benefits might go down to make sure you do not get more than the cap limit.
