Ready reckoners

We have already calculated how different levels of assets and income will affect pension rates, and by how much. We publish these amounts in tables, called ready reckoners. Use the ready reckoners that apply to your situation.

  • Pension rates if you are single

    You can estimate how much service or social security age pension you may receive

  • Pension rates if you are a couple

    Tables to help you work out how much service or social security age pension we may pay you

  • Supplement rates if you are single

    You can work out your rate of income support supplement

  • Pension rates if illness separates couples

    You can learn how much we may pay you if you are not living with your partner because you are sick

  • The income we deem you received from your assets

    We use these tables to work out how much income your financial assets produce

  • Couples who started their pension before 20 September 2009

    You can estimate your service or social security age pension rate

  • Couples who started their supplement before 20 September 2009

    If we assessed your supplement amount under the Transition Rules you can estimate your payment rate

  • Illness separated couples who received their pension before 20 September 2009

    You can estimate your pension if we assessed you and your partner under the Transition rules

  • Rates if your pension started before 20 September 2009

    Learn how much we may pay if we assessed you under the Transition Rules

  • Rates if your supplement started before 20 September 2009

    If you were assessed under the Transition rules, you can estimate how much we will pay you

  • Supplement rates if you are a couple

    You and your partner can use this to estimate the supplement that you may receive
