The State Pension age currently stands at 66 for most people, after changes recently. Historically, the state pension age stood at 60 for women and 65 for men, but changed by late 2018 in a process of equalisation. It is set to rise to 67 between 2026 and 2028, and once again to 68 from 2037 onwards.
