answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/07/2015 answer text <p /> <p>The level of income at which entitlement to Pension Credit ends is £151.20 for those under 65 years of age and £188.25 for those aged 65 and over (£230.85 and £274.43 respectively for couples). These amounts may be higher for those with caring responsibilities, a severe disability, or certain housing costs. When calculating Pension Credit entitlement, income such as earnings, pensions or income drawdown is taken into account net of any tax liability, and subject in some cases to full or partial disregards. The provisions defining income and its treatment are sections 15 and 16 of the State Pension Credit Act 2002 and regulations 14 to 18 and schedules IV and VI of the State Pension Credit Regulations 2002.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 16/07/2015 16:31:51 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
