Understanding the Gradual Increase in Pension Age WASPI Dates of Birth
The UK government recently raised the state pension age for women to bring it in line with that for males, leading them to wait longer before accessing their benefits – creating potential financial burden during that extended wait timeframe.
WASPI adjustments apply only for individuals born after April 6, 1950, and before April 5, 1960, who need accessing state pension benefits through state retirement schemes.

The State Pension Age (SPA) for women in the UK underwent gradual increases due to legislative changes introduced in the Pensions Act 1995 and accelerated by the Pensions Act 2011. These changes aligned women’s SPA with men’s and accounted for increasing life expectancy. Here’s an explanation with examples to clarify the process.
Calculate how much state owes you for increasing SPA without proper communication

The Initial Change – Pensions Act 1995
- Before 1995, the SPA for women was 60.
- After the 1995 Act, the SPA for women increased that they avail pension after the age of 60.
- The SPA was to increase to 65 by April 2020.
The Acceleration – Pensions Act 2011
- The 2011 Act sped up the timeline, requiring women born later to wait until 66 to receive their State Pension.
- This accelerated schedule significantly impacted women born in the late 1950s, who saw their SPA increase by several years with less time to plan.
Example Scenarios
Woman Born on 5 April 1950
Woman Born on 6 April 1953
Why It Matters
The gradual increase meant some women faced shorter notice periods and longer delays than others:
- Early 1950s Births: Affected minimally, with delays of 1-3 years.
- Mid-to-Late 1950s Births: Affected most, with delays of up to 6 years.
