State Pension is a benefit that provides financial aid each month for 12.6 million people across the country, including approximately one million in Scotland.
This payment is worth up to £185.15 per week for the New State Pension, or £141.85 per week for the older Basic State Pension (Category A or B), reports the Daily Record.
This is available for those who have reached the eligible retirement age, set by the UK Government, which was increased to 66 back in October 2020.
