Basic state pension

[Angela345]

Hi

I was wondering if any of you guys could help me.

I am 80 years old and I received the basic state pension, the old style pension.

I also get savings pension credit on top. Around £12.

If I make money in addition to getting my basic state pension, would my pension be affected or compromised in anyway. Of course, In might be charged income tax, corporation tax etc.
But my question is specifically regarding any impact on my basic state pension.

Thank you

No you still get your pension you will just pay tax accordingly.

I believe you can only get Pension credit if you're income is below a certain amount. Therefore if you receive another income it could take you over that threshold. It would be best to look into that. It won't affect your state pension though.

@Angela345 have you made sure to claim assistance with things such as council tax? I would contact AgeUK for financial advice on additional assistance where you receive pension credit.
