The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has recently confirmed that new claims for Pension Credit that were made between April 1 2022 and July 3 2022 took an average of around 40 days to process.
As reported by the Daily Record, this means that those over the State Pension age that submit an application this week, could receive financial support before the end of October.
