State pension deferment won't boost payments if certain benefits are claimed - full list
When a person is ready to claim a deferred state pension they will be able to do so by applying online so long as the deferment lasted for a year or less.
Where a person has deferred for more than a year, they’ll need to call the official pension service to claim.
When claimed, state pensions are usually paid every four weeks into the account of the claimant’s chosen account.
Initial payments will arrive within five weeks and payments will arrive monthly beyond that.
