  Your email has reminded of recent discussions on this topic and my email to you on 18th September as follows:-

  It is possible I am not getting the complete picture so tell me - at what ever age citizens of Australia are eligible to receive a government pension, do folks in the same situation as you get the usual amount or is it less and if so why? 
  (For example to get a US pension at least 40 quarterly contributions must be made, meaning contributions for at least 10 years).

  Do folks in your situation who contributed to the uk scheme prior to departure for Australia  receive any pension or benefits from the uk government upon reaching retirement age?


Perhaps you missed my response eh?

Here it is again.

Yes we both receive a UK pension.

What ever it was when I retired it is the same today.

And yes, I receive an Australian Pension.

My Australian pension is reduce by 60 cents of every dollar that I receive from the UK. Or - it may be the other way around. I can’t remember

My wife being a UK citizen also receives a UK pens but much less than mine. The same thing happens to her Aussie pension.

At the moment the age for a pension is 65.
