Check your State Pension age

Industry News - 13th November 2024

Do you want to know when you’ll be able to claim your State Pension? HMRC’s
‘Check your State Pension age’ online tool allows taxpayers to check the earliest age at which you can start receiving the State Pension.

You can also use the tool to check your Pension Credit qualifying age and when you will be eligible for free bus travel.

The State Pension age is currently 66 years old for both men and women but will increase again from 6 May 2026 to 67 years old for those born on or after April 1960.

The Pensions Act 2014 requires the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions to regularly review the State Pension age. This helps to ensure that the government is able to consider the latest information to inform any future decision on the State Pension age. This review includes life expectancy and population projections, the economic position and the impact on the labour market.

The government is currently required to provide 10 years notice of changes to State Pension age, enabling people to plan effectively for retirement. It is thought that all options for increasing the rise to the State Pension age from 67 to 68 that meet the 10 years notice period will be in scope at the next review.

Please get in touch if you have any questions. We can help with all of your tax and accounting needs.

Dave and the team at Perrigo Consultants have been with me since early on in my business journey. Their proactive support and consultancy has helped me grow from an apprehensive entrepreneur to a confident agency owner whose finance and management needs are well covered. Knowing that our Companies House and HRMC reporting requirements are being handled by professionals provides peace of mind, but best of all it allows me to concentrate on looking after my team and clients, and critically to keep an eye on the future. We’re now in the process of setting up another new business and I wouldn’t turn to anyone else for support.

Dave Perrigo is quite comfortably the best in his industry. Having used several practices before Perrigo Consultants I took the decision to switch after a casual conversation. It’s also important to stress here that I had always felt well served and looked after by all my previous accountants. Very simply, Perrigo Consultants and Dave Perrigo in particular, took being looked after into a different hemisphere. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Having Perrigo in your team enables you to concentrate on earning a living safe in the knowledge that everything else is being taken care of.
