Child disability payment - an introduction

CPAG in Scotland

Child disability payment (CDP) is a Scottish benefit that helps with the extra costs of looking after a disabled child. Getting an award of CDP can significantly increase income so it is a crucial benefit for advisers and support workers to understand. This course gives a practical insight into the main rules and helps you identify children who may be entitled. It equips you to make effective claims by demonstrating how a child meets the qualifying criteria.

The course covers:

Who is entitled to CDP

How to claim

How CDP for a child can increase benefits for the family
