Mine too, Grandmasue. I believe we have to apply for the pension about two months before our birthday but I haven’t looked into it yet. Just what I heard.

I just scraped in to recieve mine at 65 this year. First payment was 4 mnths after my birthday.
If you go on the government web site it will tell you when and how much.

Your pay day depends on your national insurance number. You can still be paid weekly rather than four weekly if you ask - though you have to ring them up.

Couple of weeks, as they pay every 4 weeks (not every month) and you get 13 payments a year.

I will reach state pension age in 3 years time. How long after my 66th birthday before I actually start to receive my pension payments?
