When can I draw my deferred benefits?

Your deferred benefits are normally payable from your Normal Pension Age (NPA), but you can opt to put them into payment earlier - from age 55 onwards.

 

The date you left the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) will determine your NPA:

 

 

We will produce a statement for you each year to tell you the current value of your deferred benefits and what your NPA is.

 

You can find this on your My Pension account. Your benefits on hold are revalued each year in line with the Consumer Prices Index (CPI) and are then paid in full at your NPA.
