Thank you for pointing this out. In light of this possibility I retract my criticism of DWP and am now feeling happier about the whole thing.tooldle said:I’m of the understanding, state pension could be paid in advance for some claimants. There were a number of changes starting in 2010 which brought payments schedules into line across a range of benefits. So, if the pensioner started their claim prior to 2010, there could be an advance payment element.1
