Ah, the State Pension. It’s the government’s contribution to your golden years. If you die before you claim it, you get nothing—which sounds brutal. But there’s a tiny silver lining. If you die after you’ve started claiming, your spouse or civil partner might inherit a little bit of it. It’s called a “bereavement support payment” or “inherited State Pension.” It’s not a fortune—usually a few hundred pounds a month—but it’s a little nod that says, “We see you.”
