Hi Kas29
Welcome to the community.
Is there a number on the letter to call. They can tell you what you will get.
Your pension will replace your DLA.
I am not sure what you will be entitled too.

Hi @Kas29, how are you doing? Is there a phone number on the letter you can call?

You will get your state pension and you may need to claim pension credits to top up your income. As for your DLA this should continue until you don't meet the criteria.

You should try welfare rights or cab if you get stuck good luck
