You will be able to have your basic pension increased to 60% of the value of your husbands basic pension , if 60% of his pension is higher then what you get now.
When he completes his BR1( pension claim form) you also need to complete one at the same time to claim the increase.I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0
