I never said that it was a pension credit payment of up to £700
What I did say was:

This can rise depending on the other benefits that you are also in receipt of to close to £700 a week for a couple.

If you are getting £700 a week already, why would one need Personal Independence Payment as well? Or is that included in that mystical figure?

That in Furs that pension credit can rise to £700 a week dependent on other benefits.

Although I'm still uncertain of your £700 figure this would also include non means-tested benefit

please can you provide a complete breakdown because I've be really interested

Included (well it was included but hopefully it will restart subject to the DWP changing their decision following the MR application) with the highest rate (life award) of AA that my wife claims

AA has either a fixed end date or an indefinite award.

An indefinite award doesn't mean that you get it for the rest of your life. It just means that there is no fixed date for renewal.

Of course it is quite possible that your wife's AA will not need to be reviewed but just giving you a 'heads up'.

Thank you, I was aware that it was an indefinite award. There is little point in notifying the DWP of any deterioration in her health as she is on the highest award that can be awarded
