Pension Credit

Pension Credit

Pension Credit is a tax-free benefit for people on low incomes who have reached Pension Credit age.

Even if you can only get a small amount, it’s still worth claiming. It may help you get other support, like Housing Benefit or help with Council Tax.

You can claim Pension Credit through the Department for Work and Pensions (this link will open in a new tab and take you away from our site).

The state pension age is changing. You can check when you will reach Pension Credit age on the GOV.UK site (this link will open in a new tab and take you away from our site).
