Retirees could be due over £700 each month if they are over the age of 70 and meet some other benefit criteria
The War Widow or Widower's Pension can be claimed by individuals if their spouse or civil partner died as a result of their service before April 6, 2005 - though there are additional eligibility criteria to meet. Many pensioners, who depend on the state pension to get by, are tightening their belts after restrictions on Winter Fuel Payments were green-lit earlier this week. This will see millions lose out on the £300 seasonal payment for the first time this year.
These rates vary based on factors such as age, rank, pre-existing illnesses or injuries, and conditions developed or worsened due to service in the UK Armed Forces, according to the Manchester Evening News . The War Pension scheme is available to those who have served in the UK Armed Forces and suffered an injury or illness due to service before April 6, 2005. It is awarded at two main levels.
