The arrears payment is separate from the deferral process.</p><p> </p><p>The customer is provided with guidance on backdating and deferral alongside their State Pension claim form.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>The Department reviews the information available on its website and the State Pension claim form on an ongoing basis as part of continuous improvements to customer communications and products. Additional information on the State Pension arrears payment is currently being reviewed for inclusion on the Department's website by the end of July 2024. Additional updates to the information on backdating are also being considered for the State Pension claim form (digital and paper).</p> answering member constituency Blackpool North and Cleveleys answering member printed Paul Maynard question first answered 21/05/2024 15:03:51 answering member 3926 label Biography information for Paul Maynard
