State Pension

Chris82

Hi all,
First post! We have a client who has advised us that his state pension is £12,034pa. I'm not going to be able to get a BR19 for some time from him though he says he has had this figure confirmed. Before I start doing too much cash flow based on that....does that sound possible?

I know that under the pre 2016 regime it might be possible to have more (S2P etc) but is this figure within the kind of bounds anyone has seen before? Thanks very much

This is to do with the additional state pension i think...

If it puts your mind at ease, i have seen figures higher than £12K in the past..

yeah sounds possible.

Have they deferred?

Totally a thing for clients who retired some years ago. Used to have a few clients where State Pension exceeded personal allowance leading to a k number tax code

Thanks all. Puts my mind at rest - they've not deferred and he reaches state pension in about 3 years' time. Really appreciate it.
