Hi,
I am helping my mum apply for the non-contributary state pension.
My dad already gets the contributary pension.
On the application form it asks for her amount in savings and her annual income.
Her savings are a joint account with my dad.
The income is farm lease payment, again this supports both of them.
On the form, should the total amounts be entered?
Or should the amounts be halved as 50% of the savings and income are to support my dad.
Many thanks.
