Under a proposal contained in the State Pension age review, the State Pension age will increase to 68 between 2037 and 2039. Under current legislation, the State Pension age will rise to 68 between 2044 and 2046.
The change, which is subject to parliamentary approval, will affect everyone born between 6 April 1970 and 5 April 1978.
However, under the proposal they will, on average, still receive more State Pension over their lifetime than generations before them.
No one born on or before 5 April 1970 will see a change to their current proposed State Pension age.
The change is intended to maintain fairness between generations in line with continuing increases in life expectancy.
