If you want to check what benefits you are entitled to the Government recommends using an independent calculator to find out:
- what benefits you could get
- how to claim
- how your benefits will be affected if you start work
These are free to use, anonymous, and have replaced the Benefits Adviser service. Use one of the following:
- Turn2us – for information on income-related benefits, tax credits, Council Tax Reduction, Carer’s Allowance, Universal Credit and how your benefits will be affected if you start work or change your working hours
- https://benefits-calculator.turn2us.org.uk/AboutYou?utm_source=BAdviser&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=GovUK
- Policy in Practice – for information on income-related benefits, tax credits, contribution-based benefits, Council Tax Reduction, Carer’s Allowance, Universal Credit, how these are calculated and how your benefits will be affected if you start work or change your working hours
