    You would need to contact the pension provider for answers.

    If you receive New Style ESA or Universal Credit then any pension income would impact your payments.

    I managed to get my small Stakeholder pension early when I stated I would never return to work. They wanted me to get a form signed by my GP stating this.

    DWP were right onto me, and I had to go to the job centre to prove all was above board (was only a lump sum of under £6k).

    Hi @Skylark2512 and welcome to the community.

    Here is some information for you Ill-Health Retirement and Pensions. As Kimi has said, it will require you to contact your pension provider as each one has different rules.
