I met the War Widows Association earlier this year and during our meeting they put forward their case for the reinstatement of War Widow’s Pensions for those widows who had remarried or cohabited before 1 April 2015. Our policy on retrospection remains the same. For those who have already surrendered their pension due to remarriage or cohabitation, if that relationship ends they can apply to have their pension restored for life.
