<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>
