The DWP\u2019s<\/a> multi-million-pound dashboard to help savers track down their pension<\/a> money is finally on track for completion after a seven-year delay. Officials have confirmed the long-awaited MoneyHelper Pensions Dashboard is on course to meet its critical October 31 deadline to connect thousands of pension schemes to the service.<\/p>\n As of July, 85% of pension schemes are connected, integrating more than 70 million private pension records and tens of millions of State Pension<\/a> records. The tool is expected to go live to the public next year, allowing users to see all of their pension pots in one place. Torsten Bell, Minister for Pensions, said: \u201cWe are on track for a major pensions moment, where for the first time people will be able to see their share of the UK\u2019s \u00a33 trillion of pensions wealth in one place.”<\/p>\n MP Torsten Bell described the update as a ‘major pension moment’ (Image: PA)<\/p>\n “For too long, savers have had little visibility of what they’ve built up over a lifetime of work \u2013 that changes with dashboards.\u201d<\/p>\n Users will be able to access the dashboard using their secure GOV.UK<\/a> One Login to see all their pension pots and projections at once, including their projected state pension. Early testing with roughly 4,000 people has appeared successful, routinely uncovering forgotten pension cash.<\/p>\n The Money and Pensions Service (MaPS) said early users gave the service \u201ca strong vote of confidence\u201d, highlighting that it is notably \u201cstraightforward\u201d to use.<\/p>\n The project, which was first mooted in 2015, was originally planned to launch in 2019. The roll-out plans were extended in 2023; however, technicalities meant the deadline was pushed forward to 2026.<\/p>\n Mr Bell confirmed to the Express: \u201cWe are hugely on track for the deadlines that have been set out, including making sure pension schemes are connected by October.\u201d<\/p>\n He added: \u201cWe are very confident the rest can get there.\u201d<\/p>\n Stay up-to-date with the latest Money news Join us on WhatsApp<\/a><\/p>\n![\"Torsten](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/torsten-bell-7029583.jpg\" "\\"Torsten")
