Pension Credit

sheZZa

On 5/3/25 I reached state pension age and as a result my ESA inc severe disability premium stopped on 4/3 as has my housing benefit.
I should get my first payment of state pension on 30th April which is a long time to go without receiving any money although I do receive enhanced Pip (both elements). My rent is £690.00

I have applied for Pension Credit and am waiting to hear. However, I have two small private pensions, can I defer one or do I have to cash them both in?

Hi @sheZZa really sorry we've missed this. Have you managed to resolve this in the meantime?
