I am getting conflicting answers to my question on different sites. My partner and I get new state pension of 230.25 each. I have an underlying entitlement to carers allowance and partner gets ADP. Can we claim pension credit
Hi @tenaj15, welcome to the community. Have you tried the government's pension credit calculator? You can input your details and it can often give you an idea of what you might be eligible to claim:
Pension Credit calculator - GOV.UK
Hi,
Using the calculator linked above will be your best option.
Just for a quick answer though: ADP does not get counted as income for this. Carers Allowance does get counted as income, but as you're not receiving any money for it, that shouldn't affect your total income either.
The value must be greater than or equal to 1.
