Pension Credit age

Pension Credit age was 60 in 2010 but is gradually increasing to 65 as State Retirement Age increases. The qualification age for a woman is when she receives her State Retirement Pension. For a man it is the age that a woman with the same date of birth as him receives her State Retirement Pension. See our guide to changes to State Retirement Pension age for more information.
