Budget and benefits calculator

You can use an independent, free and anonymous benefits calculator to check what you could be entitled to.

It will give you an estimate of the benefits you are eligible for and how much better off you might be in work. You can also see how changes in your household budget can affect your income.

For information on income-related benefits, contribution-based benefits, Universal Credit, tax credits, Council Tax Reduction and Carer’s Allowance, you can go to this government link and there are three different benefits calculators available for you to use:

Benefits calculators - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

The benefit calculator is suitable for most people permanently living in the UK. It is not meant for people in hospital, residential care, on strike or in prison. Calculations should be treated as a helpful estimate, as it will only be as accurate as the information entered.
