Hi @Prossboy1957, welcome to the community. Do you or your wife claim pension credit? Is she due to receive her state pension soon too?

You can try using a benefits calculator. They aren't always 100% accurate but they can sometimes give you an idea of whether you're receiving everything you're entitled to.

You might also like to speak to a benefits adviser. They'll be able to look at all your details and tell you if there's anything that you're missing out on. There's a database to search on the Turn2Us website: https://advicefinder.turn2us.org.uk/

You would be known as a mixed age couple for benefits purposes.

AgeUK is a place that could offer help.
