Hi,
As your wife was working then i'm assuming that you're claiming either the old Contributions based ESA or New style ESA? If so then they are both Contributions based and not means tested so savings/capital redundancy money doesn't affect the amount you can claim.
PIP isn't mean tested either and isn't affected.
For what benefits your wife can claim then you'll be need to contact an advice agency near you for a full benefits check because what she can claim will depend on circumstances.
