Capital limits
If you have capital we may ignore some of its value when we work out how much income you get from it.
Examples of capital include:
- savings
- assets
- investments
Upper capital limit of £23,250
If you have capital at or above this amount you will not get any financial support towards your care costs.
If the value of your capital is above the lower capital limit of £14,250 and below £23,250
For every £250, or part of £250 over the lower limit, £1 is taken into account as weekly income.
This is added to your normal income to work out how much you are asked to pay.
Savings or investments worth less than the upper capital limit of £23,250
We will calculate how much you need to contribute towards your care, based on your:
- savings
- income
- expenditure
