Retirement extension, UK state pension, embassy letter question.

[mrjohn]

I am due to receive the first payments of my UK state pension in January.

I also need to do my retirement extension in mid-January.

So I will be doing my retirement extension before I’ve actually received any of my state pension payments.

I’ll be using a British Embassy letter to support my extension, so my question is:

What evidence, i.e. which specific document do I need to show the British Embassy as proof of my state pension?

The letter from DWP stating how much it is along with any other pensions you may have.

Thanks for the reply. I actually got the letter yesterday so I will use that.
