Benefit calculators

What could you be entitled to?

You can use an independent, free and anonymous benefits calculator to check what you could be entitled to. This will give you an estimate of:

• the benefits you could get
• how much your benefit payments could be
• how your benefits will be affected if you start work or increase your hours
• how your benefits will be affected if your circumstances change – for example, if you have a child or move in with your partner

What you'll need

You'll need accurate information about your:

• savings
• income, including your partner's (from payslips, for example)
• existing benefits and pensions (including anyone living with you)
• outgoings (such as rent, mortgage, childcare payments)
• council tax bill
