Your regular pension scheme includes a supplement to the partner’s pension that has commenced. This supplement will change as of January 1, 2022. The supplement to the partner’s pension that commenced ran until the applicable state pension age at the time of granting. However, the partner’s state pension age may be different, as the state pension age is currently increasing. To ensure that the end date of the supplement is in line with the state pension age, the supplement will give a supplement until the actual state pension age from 1 January 2022.
This change will not apply to benefits that commenced before 1 January 2022.
