Hi, I am 51 and divorced. I am in receipt of a Civil service Classic pension due to ill health. I divorced my husband and we did a pension sharing Order which I am waiting to be implemented. My ex husbands pension is a classic one too. What I am trying to find out is whether or not I am entitled to draw the pension immediately as I was financially dependent on my ex husband and my ill health pension is very small. Any advice appreciated.

It will depend on the scheme rules of the receiving pension but if you have qualified under the rules of one scheme then you will probably qualify under the rules of wherever your share goes.
