Deferred Pension Dates - Transfer from IB to ESA

12 years 9 months ago #84912 by CHRISSYH
I will be 60 shortly. However under the new pension rules my retirement date will be July 2014. My MP told me in writing in October 2011 that I would not have to wait more than 18 months for my pension which would be December 2013. If you are to get your pension by March 2014 you will not have to transfer from IB to ESA. Help as my date is July 2014. Will I have to go through this process? I have been on DLA full mobility since 2001.

The cut off is based on your State Retirement Age so if this is going to be July 2014, then I am afraid you should expect to be transferred.

You can confirm you SRA at the following site
