disability allowance
Explanation:
It's the old case of "objets trouvés" versus "lost property".
The French seems far more politically correct, but most instances of "personal autonomy allowance" appear to relate directly to APA rather than to the equivalents in other countries which might be more appropriate when translating for non-French readers.
