Hi no doubt there may have been discussions before about the waspi findings, it says you can apply online, I'm 64 so I think I might qualify, I'm not holding my breath that I will get a £1 or 2, it states that you have to give evidence of financial + emotional impact it's had on you because of the delayed pension from age 60 to 66 and upwards in many cases, I think my daughter will be 75 before she gets state pension, anyway how does one start to answer??

    The government has not yet agreed upon or implemented a compensation scheme for WASPI women. If the scheme proceeds, it will apply to women born between 6th April 1950 and 5th April 1960. Women born after 5th April 1960 will not be eligible for compensation.

    If you want more information or guidance, I recommend looking at the official WASPI site or contacting them directly to ensure that any form or communication you received is legitimate.

    Had to retire early through ill health think i was about 62=63 so had to go on benefits which you could imagine. Was not enough so had to use private pension is not a very big pension was hoping to maybe use it for little treats if I had been better informed about this could have tried to make some more arrangements the gist or the thing is had to use my private pension that I have been saving for a good many years to make life a bit easier when i retired
