State pension post 2016
Comments

Yes. I get a little more, and others on here have posted even more than me. It's been explained how on here before, although I'm still not 100% clear. I think it's something to do with being contracted out but still making sufficient NI contributions during these years, even though paying a lower %age of salary. Someone else may be able to explain it better, but I'm sure I've seen figures >£200 mentioned.2. Does anyone who begings to claim their state pension after 2016 get more than £164? If so, how?0 -
The maximum pension you can get, based on old rules accrual, is currently £298.23 per week comprising of £125.95 basic and £172.28 additional pension which is earnings related and comes from not being contracted out. https://www.which.co.uk/money/pensions-and-retirement/state-pension/your-state-pension-and-benefits/state-second-pension-and-serps-ad9mc1v6fq6t0
