\"WarningThe pension age is increasing from next year.<\/p>\n

The Government has named the birth dates of people who will not receive their state pension until the are 67 as part of major pension age changes.<\/p>\n

From next year, the pension age will start to increase from 66 to 67.<\/p>\n

This will affect people currently in their 50s and early 60s who may have to work longer than anticipated.<\/p>\n

The DWP<\/a> has confirmed Brits born after March 6, 1961 (currently aged 64) will not get their state pension until they are 67.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, there will also be changes for people born after April 1960 as the pension age increases a month at a time.<\/p>\n

For example, someone born between September and October 1960 will have to wait until they are 66 and six months for their pension.<\/p>\n

A recent survey found more than one in five people could not accurately identify when their state pension starts, suggesting many people may be unprepared for the change.<\/p>\n

The pension age generally increases every couple of decades or so reflecting rising life expectancy and the ageing population.<\/p>\n

Some people in their 50s and early 60s may now need to work out if they have enough savings or cash from a private pension to avoid having to work for longer.<\/p>\n

It comes amid reports the Government may be considering bringing the next rise to 68 forward from the current planned date of 2044.<\/p>\n

However, there would have to be at least 10 years’ notice to allow people to plan for retirement.<\/p>\n

Experts at Pension Bee explained: “Currently both men and women can claim this from the age of 66, but for those born after April 5, 1960, it’ll rise gradually each month and by one month at a time, until it reaches 67 in April 2028.<\/p>\n

“It’ll eventually rise to 68, affecting those born after April 1977.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Millions of people will be affected by changes happening from next year 15:13, 29 May 2025Updated 15:14, 29…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":143343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3093],"tags":[51,1267,474,2074,2499,16,15,961],"class_list":{"0":"post-143342","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-personal-finance","8":"tag-business","9":"tag-dwp","10":"tag-finance","11":"tag-pension","12":"tag-personal-finance","13":"tag-uk","14":"tag-united-kingdom","15":"tag-your-money"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114595241857598683","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=143342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/143342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/143343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=143342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=143342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=143342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
