Lone Parent Pension

[ask73]

I am 65 and am retired from the HSE with a pension. I also am paid a deserted wife payment which I have for the last 20 years.

Am I entitled to the state pension in lieu of this benifit or am I entitled to any benifits such as TV licence, telephone, electricity?

I recently got my bus pass but have not received any other benifits

Hi, I dont know the answer, but the following link might help.

Loads of information on here, but it might be worth just calling them to find out?
