State Pension age

Because we’re living longer, the age at which we get our State Pensions is gradually increasing, depending on when you were born. Your State Pension age could currently be anywhere between the ages of 65 and 68. The government also periodically reviews the State Pension age so these ages may change in the future.

If you retire before you get your State Pension, it’s worth checking that your other pension savings or income can cover your living costs until then.
