Your Pension is Increasing by 3.8% in April 2026 10/03/2026

Good news! If you receive a pension from us, your payments will increase by 3.8% from 6 April 2026.

This increase is based on the Consumer Prices Index (CPI), which measures inflation by tracking the cost of everyday goods and services. The government has confirmed that public service pensions will rise in line with CPI for the year up to September 2025.

Who Does This Affect?
The increase applies to:
Pensions currently being paid
Deferred pensions (pensions you haven’t yet claimed)
CARE pension accounts (Career Average Revalued Earnings pensions)
