Passported benefits

[ch 13: page 412]

Claimants on income-based Job Seekers Allowance or income-related Employment and Support Allowance qualify automatically for full fee remission. These are known as passported benefits. Original official letters from the DWP must be produced to confirm receipt of the benefit, dated in the last three months.
