Contact us before the date of your first pension payment or within one month of receiving the retirement notice confirming:

  • the amount of lump sum or percentage you want to take from each Section or Scheme you’re claiming benefits from
  • you agree any overpaid pension will be recovered from the lump sum if you’re increasing your lump sum
  • you agree to return any overpaid lump sum if you’re increasing your pension and choose to receive normal pension benefits

If you cannot access your retirement notice within this one-month period, you must tell us why. Requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
