Government Pension and Allowances Help needed please.

Government Pension and Allowances Help needed please.

I am 70 years old
I am currently in receipt of a Government Pension (GP), paid every Wednesday direct into my Bank Account.
I have undertaken some my own research I have found a few sticking points.

I have several questions;

1. For personal reasons I am moving to the USA, I understand that the UK has an arrangement with the USA to pay GP into my Bank Account whilst in the USA.

1. Will it be paid into my UK Bank account and I then access it via an ATM?
2. Will it be paid in GBP or Dollars, either UK Account or USA Account?
3. Will I need to open up a US Bank Account Once I have my Green Card and have the GP paid directly into it?

1. There are various amounts being talked about as to what I can or cannot earn, what is the true figure?
2. What is the information as regards yearly increase in GP amount if applicable?

Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance.
