Up to 800,000 pensioners could be missing out on extra money by not claiming a top-up benefit, Martin Lewis has warned.
Mr Lewis urged state pensioners who earn under £200 and couples less than £300 a week to check if they are eligible for Pension Credit, which could be worth around £3,500 per year from April 2022, reports the Mirror.
Pension Credit is extra money to help with living costs for those who claim the State Pension and have a low income. It is separate from the State Pension. If you can claim Pension Credit you may also be elgiible for other help, like Housing Benefit or support for mortgage interest payments.
