Hundreds of thousands of pensioners are being urged to apply for a benefit that could be worth on average £3,900 per year as DWP has launched a campaign to increase Pension Credit take-up today. With as many as 880,000 pensioners missing out, the Pension Credit Week of Action aims to spread awareness and increase claims for Pension Credit, which from this year will also automatically passport eligible pensioners to receive the Winter Fuel Payment. Families, friends and neighbours are being encouraged to reach out to retired family members to encourage them to check their eligibility and apply. The last possible date to make a successful backdated claim to receive the Winter Fuel Payment is 21 December.
Applications for Pension Credit can be made on the How to Claim page on GOV.UK or over the phone by calling 0800 99 1234 (Monday to Friday 8am to 6pm).
