Anyone able to tell me why I am getting an extra £12.72 on my state pension. Its called a protected payment. Nothing to do with inherenting a late spouses pension as i haven't got one. The other option is
"Your National Insurance record before the 6th April 2016 was used to calculate your starting amount in the new scheme "
That's not actually telling me why.
Anyone able to explain it in a clear and concise way?
I am happy to get it but if I am not entitled to it, I might sometime in the future....far distant future have to pay it back.
