Our Benefits Calculator
Our benefits calculator will help you find out what benefits you can claim.
The calculator is free to use, and the details you provide are anonymous.
Before you start, make sure you have information about your savings, income, pensions and existing benefits (for you and your partner).
If you run out of time, you can save your calculation and come back to it later, and pick up right where you left off. Click below to get started.
