Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what estimate they have made of the number of people who qualify for Pension Credit but do not claim it each year.

According to the latest data, 770,000 people are eligible non-recipients of Pension Credit for the financial year ending 2020. The published data tables can be accessed here: Income-related benefits: estimates of take-up: financial year 2019 to 2020 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
