Direct Payment
Notes to help you fill in Part 9 of IPC BR1 GOV
What is International Pensions Direct Payment?
International Pensions Direct Payment is the Department for Work and Pensions’ way of paying your pension or benefit direct to an account of your choice
outside the United Kingdom.
The advantages
Getting your money paid in this way has many advantages:
it is secure
it is convenient
you will benefit from competitive exchange rates based on bulk buying of currency
there are no postal delays
there are no cheque clearance delays
it is less expensive for us to arrange, which saves taxpayers’ money.
How does it work?
The £ sterling value of your money will be converted to local currency and paid directly to your account. Your pension or benefit will be paid in arrears.
You can choose to be paid at the end of 4 or 13 weeks
If you choose to be paid every 4 weeks
The money will be paid into an account for you in the week following each 4 week period. Your first payment might cover a period of 2 to 5 weeks, but
after this all payments will cover a 4 week period.
If you choose to be paid every 13 weeks
The money will be paid into an account for you in the week following each 13 week period. Your first payment might cover a period of 2 to 14 weeks, but
after this all payments will cover a 13 week period.
But if you are only going to get a small State Pension or benefit you will be paid once a year.

IPCBR1GOV_122013 interactive v0.0:IPCBR0001.qxd 11/03/2015 12:28 Page 1
You can work out what exchange rate has been used for each payment by dividing the amount by the £ sterling value of your money.
About the account you want to use
You can use an account in your name, or a joint account.
You can use someone else’s account if:
the terms and conditions of their account allow this, and
they agree to let you use their account, and
you are sure they will use your money in the way you tell them.
If you are an appointee or a legal representative acting on behalf of the customer, the account should be in your name only.
Finding out how much we have paid into the account
We will tell you when we will make the first payment and how much it will be for in £ sterling. You can check your payments on account statements. The
statements may show your National Insurance number next to any payments we have made. If you think a payment is wrong, get in touch with us
straight away.
Changes in pension or benefit
We will tell you when the money you get from us goes up. The amount of money we send you may change because of currency exchange rates.
If we pay you too much money
If we pay you too much money we have the right to take back any money we pay that you are not entitled to. This may be because of the way the
payment system works. For example, you may give us some information which means you are entitled to less money. Sometimes we may not be able to
change the amount we have already paid you. This means we will have paid you money that you are not entitled to. We will contact you before we take
back any money.
Important additional information
You must tell us straight away when your bank or account details change. If you do not, your payments may be delayed.
If you require further information, please contact us on +44 191 218 7777.
You may find it useful to keep these notes.

Part 4 When to claim State Pension
If you are a man your 65th birthday
If you put off getting your State Pension after you are 65, you
may get extra State Pension or a lump sum when you do get your
State Pension.
If you are a woman your State Pension age
If you are claiming State Pension on your husband’s NI contributions,
you cannot be entitled from a date earlier than his 65th birthday.
If you are getting Widow's/Bereavement Benefit your payday will
stay as it is.
If you put off getting your State Pension from the date you reach
State Pension age, you may get extra State Pension or a lump sum
when you do get your State Pension.
Notes
We can accept your claim if it is received no earlier than 4 months
before the date you wish to get State Pension, or the date you reach
State Pension age whichever is the later.
If you put off claiming your State Pension from the date you are
entitled, you can get extra State Pension or a one-off taxable lump
sum payment. You can find out more about putting off claiming your
State Pension and the effect on increases for adults who depend on
you in leaflet Deferring your State Pension.
The minimum period you must put off claiming your State Pension to
get extra State Pension is 5 weeks or 12 months to get a lump sum
payment. Extra State Pension or lump sum payments are worked out
over the time you put off claiming your State Pension.
Your State Pension cannot be backdated more than 12 months before
the date your claim is received. If you backdate your claim this will
affect any extra State Pension or lump sum payment you could get.
(If you have already submitted a valid claim to a country which has a
social security agreement with the United Kingdom, or a country that
applies the European Union rules on social security, it may be
possible to accept an earlier date of claim for United Kingdom
State Pension purposes).
You can find out more about State Pension in leaflet State pensions -
Your guide. You can access the leaflet on the internet at
www.gov.uk/state-pension or request by phone on
+44 191 21 87777.
You will normally get your money from the State Pension payday on or after the date you claim from. This payday is a fixed day of the week
when you get your money for that week.
Any money that you earn will not affect your State Pension.
