Summary
Pension age is rising again—starting July 6, those born between July 6 and August 5, 1960, will hit state pension age at 66 years and 4 months, part of a steady climb toward 67. While some delay retirement, research shows most don’t, leading to longer waits for pensions and lower incomes—especially for non-workers, where poverty jumped from 10% to 24% after the last increase. Knowing your pension date is vital for retirement planning; without it, saving and accessing other funds becomes harder. The Department for Work and Pensions has a clear roadmap—staying informed is key to securing your financial future.
