Benefits Calculator

Today I completed the Benefits Calculator to see if I qualify for Pension Credit.
The calculator suggested we are entitled to some Pension Credit but on reflection after completion I realised that it had not asked for my wife's private pension payments so the figures given cannot be correct.
I went through the forms again but could not find any question relating to her private pension, have I missed something?
Anyone know how this pension is to be added?

    I use entitledto.co.uk for pension credit calculations. On that site all private pensions are added under the 'net income' page and it doesn't distinguish between who 'owns' the pension.
