Pension Credit

If you or your partner are aged 60 or over

Pension Credit provides a contribution towards a guaranteed level of income of at least £109.45 a week for single people and £167.05 for couples. These amounts will be more if you have caring responsibilities, are severely disabled or have certain housing costs. For pensioners aged 65 and over Pension Credit also provides a reward for some of the savings and income they have for their retirement.
