For men born before 6 December 1953, the current State Pension age is 65.
For women born after 5 April 1950 but before 6 December 1953, their State Pension age is between 60 and 65.
Increase in State Pension age to 66
Under the Pensions Act 2011 women’s State Pension age will increase more quickly to 65 between April 2016 and November 2018. From December 2018 the State Pension age for both men and women will start to increase to reach 66 in October 2020.
These changes affect you if you're:
a woman born on or after 6 April 1953
a man born on or after 6 December 1953
The current law already provides for the State Pension age to increase to:
67 between 2034 and 2036
68 between 2044 and 2046
However, the government announced on 29 November 2011 that State Pension age will now increase to 67 between 2026 and 2028. This change is not yet law and will require the approval of Parliament.
