Is there any advice anyone can offer on Pension credit.

 

My sisters situation is she has been advised to apply for pension credit and a little help with her mortgage.

The problem is she is a "mortgage prisoner" and cannot afford to sell her house, it needs a lot of repairs, and cannot get a cheaper deal.

 

She has been working until recently, she is age 69, but if she did receive pension credit it would not cover all of her mortgage, even with the amount she would receive from the Government.

Her son is helping her at the moment and will carry on doing so until she can eventually sell the house, then she plans to repay him the loan.

 

My question is

would they allow her to do this or would any money, lent to her by her son be counted as income.

If you are not able to advise could you tell me where I could find this out for her.

Thank you.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Borrowed money is not income, so it would not affect her Pension Credit. It would be best if she could show (bank statements or whatever) where the money came from just in case there is ever a compliance check on her claim, but she should not lose any PC because of this.
