  • Support for Mortgage Interest (SMI) is a welfare benefit in the United Kingdom that entitles a person to help with their mortgage costs. The SMI is paid as a loan, which the person will need to repay with interest when he or she dies, sells or transfers ownership of their home. Before this date, SMI is paid as a benefit, which the beneficiary does not have to repay. It is usually needed to be getting, or treated as getting, a qualifying benefit to get SMI. There’s no guarantee that a person will get SMI for a mortgage or loan he or she takes out. To get SMI a person must be in receipt of one of the following benefits: * Income Support * income-based Jobseeker's Allowance * income-related Employment and Support Allowance * Pension Credit Those in receipt of Universal Credit may also be entitled to SMI. The waiting time for help increased on 1 April 2016 from 13 weeks to 39 weeks. The cost of the benefit was £205 million in 2017. With SMI ending in April 2018, saving the government about £170 million a year, the Department of Work and Pensions is offering a loan, secured on the recipient's property, a move criticised because it would put properties of people on low incomes at risk; the cessation affects about 124,000 people.
