Can I defer my state pension for a second time.

I did not claim my state pension until a few months ago when I took a lump sum. I would like to now defer my state pension again. I recall reading somewhere that this was possible but I would not be able to take the lump sum again and would have to take the increased pension.

When did you reach state retirement age ?

Likely to have been pre 2016 as op mentions a lump sum.
Though a "lump sum" could also be a achieved by backdating a post 2016 claim.

My retirement date was 15th May 2015.

I rang the DWP on 08007310469 ( change of circumstance) and they have deferred my state pension from next month. Sending confirmation in the post.
