Get ready, folks! Changes to the state pension rules are coming in 2026, and if you were born after April 5th, 1960, these changes affect you! ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ The Department for Work and Pensions has announced that the state pension age will gradually rise from 66 to 67 between 2026 and 2028.

So, what does this mean? ๐Ÿค”
– If you’re born between April 6, 1960, and March 5, 1961, youโ€™ll see a phased increase. Youโ€™ll qualify for state pension at 66 plus a few extra months.

– For those of you with birthdays after 1977, the pension age stays at 67 for now, but could potentially rise to 68 in the future!

Why the change? The government considers things like longer life expectancies before making these adjustments, and yes, Parliament has to sign off on them. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

While the moratorium assures nothing changes before 2028 after that, it’s always wise to stay informed about future developments, ensuring youโ€™re prepared for your golden years! ๐Ÿ–๏ธ
