Effect on other benefits

If you're getting pension credit you may also qualify for:

  • Housing benefit.
  • Council tax benefit.
  • Cold weather payment.
  • Funeral payments.
  • Community care grant.
  • Budgeting loans.
  • Crisis loans.
  • Winter fuel payments.
  • Sure start maternity grant.
  • Free school meals.

If you're getting some of these benefits, the amount may be reduced when you get pension credit. But you should still be better off claiming pension credit.
