    For tax purposes, the correct amount is always the figure of weekly entitlement not the number of payments you received, so this will be the first week at the old weekly pension rate, plus 51 weeks at the new weekly pension

    My state pension is paid monthly.
    ...not if it's a UK SP.

    Your state pension will be paid every 4 weeks.
    So, divide by 4 for week;y amount, though, as mentioned above, 'Use the letter ‘About the general increase in benefits’ that the Pension Service sent you to find your weekly State Pension amount',
