Hi, This is a question for HMRC admin. I'm writing on behalf of my mother who has recently attempted to fill out the CF411 form online. My father claimed child benefit for 4 years from 1982 to 1986 whilst he was working and she was caring for me for me full time. Sadly he is now deceased and she believed she would be able to transfer the HRP for those years from him. When she attempted to fill the form online, it asked if she had reached pension age before 2008. As she reached pension age in 2007 she was then unable to proceed with the form. I'm now confused as in a reply to another post 22 days ago, HMRC admin 8 states: 'Reaching state pension age in 2006 does not prevent your wife from applying for a transfer of HRP.' Could one of the HMRC admins please clarify if this is the case and it is possible for my Mum to get HRP transferred even though she reached pensionable age before 2008? Thanks.
