How Much Is Widow's Pension?
4 Answers
If my husband dies, (he has paid the full stamp), how much would I get from the state as a widow's pension? I get about 4/5 of the state pension at the moment as I didn't pay all the years' stamps.

As Dzug2 effectively indicates, 'widows' pensions' only apply to women under the state pension age when their husband (who was over the state pension age) died. You would probably be entitled to a Category B pension of (currently) £110.15 per week: http:// www. ageuk. org. uk/ Documents/ EN- GB/ Factsheets/ FS19_ State_ Pension_ fcs. pdf Remember though...

Remember though that, if you've got no other income (which would take your weekly income to £145.40 or more) you'll actually get a total of £145.40 per week through the addition of Pension Guarantee Credit:
