Pension Credit tops up weekly income to a guaranteed minimum level of £218.15 a week for single pensioners or £332.95 for couples. It is a tax-free payment for those who:

• have reached Pension Credit qualifying age, which is State Pension age, and
• live in Great Britain

Someone may still get Pension Credit if they:

• have not paid National Insurance contributions
• have some savings or a small pension
• live with their grown-up family
• own their own home
