UK Pensioners in Thailand Face New Scrutiny Over Pension Fraud
There are actually several types of benefits in the UK, and they can be broadly categorized into two main types: Contributory Benefits: These are based on National Insurance (NI) contributions. Examples include: State Pension: Payment made to those who have reached State Pension age and have enough NI contributions. Contribution-Based Employment and Support Allowance (ESA): For people who are unable to work due to illness or disability, based on NI contributions. Bereavement Support Payment: Provided to the spouses, civil partners, or dependents of deceased contributors. Non-Contributory Benefits: These are not based on NI contributions and are often means-tested, considering the individual's income and savings. Examples include: Universal Credit: For individuals on a low income or out of work. Housing Benefit: To help with rent payments. Pension Credit: For pensioners on a low income. Income Support: For those on a low income who are not required to look for work. Disability Living Allowance (DLA)/Personal Independence Payment (PIP): Financial support for those with disabilities. These benefits are designed to provide financial support for different needs and circumstances. If you have any specific questions about a particular benefit, feel free to ask!
