How come my client is getting SPC when they have no savings?

The income which is taken into account in the calculation includes state pension above the basic rate, other pensions such as occupational pensions or private pensions, as well as income from savings above £10,000. It is quite possible to receive SPC on the basis of one or more of those incomes above, whilst having no savings.
