The changes the government announced on January 14 will ensure that same work incentives will apply to the younger partner as apply to other people of the same age and that taxpayer support is directed to where it is needed most. The change will not affect mixed age couples who are entitled to Pension Credit and/or pension age Housing Benefit immediately before May 15, unless their entitlement to both those benefits subsequently ends. The number of future mixed age couples that are estimated to be affected by the forthcoming changes is not available.
