Summary
Some new pensioners starting after April 2016 could pocket nearly $2,000 in July thanks to a rare calendar quirk—five Fridays mean two payments land in one month. With a higher weekly rate of $241 (up from $185 for older recipients), the boost is even sweeter. But they miss out on older pension perks. Plus, if your pension is your only income and under $12,570, you won’t pay tax on it—though traditional pensions still apply. Timing and your National Insurance number make all the difference.
