The benefits system in England and Wales is often very useful, but it can feel overwhelming. You might be thinking about claiming for the first time, or your circumstances might have changed, or you might want to make sure you’re getting all the support you’re entitled to. Whatever your situation, this handy calculator from Turn2Us will help you check how much support you might be able to get through various benefits.
Even if you’ve been turned down in the past, it might be worth checking again. Your situation and the rules around benefits might have changed, so you may have access to money now that you didn’t before.
Before you start, it’s a good idea to have with you:
Information about any benefits you’re already getting
Recent bank statements
Information about your housing costs
