How to apply for EMA
You can apply online.
Failure to provide the necessary documents will delay payment of your EMA.
Before you begin the application we would suggest gathering the following evidence where applicable:
- proof of nationality (if you haven’t lived in the United Kingdom since birth)
- proof of income (P60, payslips, self-employed accounts, pensions, benefits, etc)
You must provide evidence of your bank account before you submit the application. If you are unable to do this please upload another document stating intent to open a bank account.
