UK State Pension in France


Recommended Posts

My Parents in law would like to come and live in France.  Father inlaw is 61 and due his state pension at 65. He is currently still working.  If he had to come now and quit his job, would he have to wait til he is 65 for his pension or could I employ him in my business until he reaches retirement age? Or could he draw less of pension now?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.  Or any websites with the relevant info.

Your Father-in-Law would have to wait until he is 65 before he can draw his UK state pension, AFAIK there is no provision to draw a reduced sum at an earlier age. There used to be a rule also (and I think it still applies) that men over 60 living abroad do not get their pension years made up to what they would be when they reach 65. That could mean, if he does not have a full contribution record already, he would have to pay voluntary contributions to make sure he got the full pension.

The Department of Work and Pensions in Newcastle are the ones to ask, I don't have a web site but they should be pretty easy to find.
