Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to a solution for handling deferred leg linking in policy and charging rules function in a telecommunications network in relation to handover between two different access technologies. The solution is provided as a nodes, system and a method for handling handover of a user equipment, i.e. UE, (101) in a telecommunications network (100) from one access technology to another access technology, comprising the steps of detecting (203) in a target access gateway, i.e. AGW, (102) that a handover state of the UE is unknown, sending (204) from the target access gateway a gateway control session, i.e. GCS, establishment message to a policy and charging rules function node (105), wherein the message comprise an indication that leg linking of a session is to be deferred until reception of corresponding control signalling from a packet data network gateway (104).
