The Department for Work and Pensions is making a state pension change for people with certain dates of birth next year. The second review of the State Pension age has been published by the Department for Work and Pensions or DWP .

The State Pension age is currently 66. The review has stated that a further increase in the State Pension age to 67 for those born on or after April 1960 will take place as planned between 2026 and 2028.

Following this announcement, the government has confirmed the State Pension age will rise to 67 by the end of 2028. It means people born between April 6 1960 and May 5 1960 will get their state pension from 66 years and 1 month - meaning they will be eligible for state pension payments from May 6 to June 6, 2026.
