Check your State Pension forecast

tiemadmin • 2 October 2025

Your State Pension forecast shows how much you could receive, when you can claim it, and how to boost it by filling National Insurance gaps.

The Check Your State Pension forecast service provides a way to understand your State Pension entitlement. This is a joint service organised by HMRC and the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and is available to most individuals under State Pension age.

The forecast allows users to see:

  • The amount of State Pension they could receive.
  • The age at which they can start receiving it.
  • Options for increasing their State Pension, such as by paying voluntary National Insurance contributions to cover any gaps.

The service also helps identify any shortfalls in National Insurance Contributions (NICs), enabling users to take action now to enhance future pension benefits.

To access the service, go to  www.gov.uk/check-state-pension and sign in securely using your Government Gateway credentials. If you don’t have an account, you can easily create one. You may need to verify your identity using a photo ID, such as a passport or driving licence.

For added convenience, you can also check your pension forecast via the HMRC app, providing secure access on the go.

If you are already receiving or have deferred your State Pension, you’ll need to reach out to The Pension Service (UK) or the International Pension Centre (abroad). Regularly checking your State Pension status is important to help maximise your entitlement and to help assess any additional savings or pensions you may need for a comfortable retirement.
