Hi Team My Partner is in receipt of sickness related ESA (Income Related). He will reach state pension age in 2022 when he is 66 yrs. I need to find out if he will be able to claim Pension Credit at his state pension age. . As the claim is for us as a couple, I think that since the new rulings both the man & the woman in the couple have to be of state pension age ? So mixed age can disqualify the older partner from claiming if he has a younger spouse ? But, he claims Housing Benefit on our behalf, so I think this may make a difference ?
