  • Money you and your partner have coming in, including earnings, some benefits and tax credits and things like occupational pensions.
  • Your and your partner's capital savings and investments.
  • Your circumstances, such as your age, the number of people in your household and the ages of your children, whether you or any of your household are disabled
