    Hi @collywobbles, welcome from me too ☺️ Sorry that it's taken a few days to get back to you.

    Is this a state pension or a private pension?

    Means tested benefits like housing benefit and ESA may be affected by your pension, but PIP won't be as that is not means tested. There's some information about pensions on the Scope website in case you find it useful:
