Nearly 13 million people across Great Britain are of State Pension age and receiving weekly payments of up to £230.25 each week. Those reaching the official age of retirement - currently 66 but set to start rising to 67 between 2026 and 2028 - can stop working and claim their State Pension , defer claiming it or continue working and also claim it. ‌

If you’re thinking about claiming it while still in employment, just remember that the Personal Allowance is frozen at £12,570 until April 2028 and any income over that threshold will be taxed. While deferring can boost annual State Pension payments by over £600 each year, many older workers may not be aware that from the age of 66, they do not need to pay National Insurance Contributions (NICs) through their salary. ‌
