  • Planning for Your Loved Ones

    When thinking about survivor benefits for your loved ones, it is important to know who is eligible and what options are available.

  • Spousal Relationship Changes (Active Members)

    Your pension can be one of your most valuable assets. Whether you are entering a new spousal relationship, ending a spousal relationship, or getting a divorce, you will need to inform us.

  • Spousal Relationship Changes (Retired Members)

    Your pension can be one of your most valuable assets. The following section details what you need to know if your spousal relationship changes after you have retired.

  • Taking time off work? (purchasing prior service)

    During your career, you may have periods of time when you did not contribute to the PSSP, such as approved leaves.

  • Disability

    Information regarding disability benefits

  • Transferring service from another pension plan?

    Often Plan members belong to more than one pension plan throughout their career. Reciprocal transfer agreements permit Plan members to transfer service from one plan to another.

  • What happens if my employment ends before I retire?

    If you stop working with an employer who participates in the PSSP before you are eligible to collect a pension, you have a couple of options for the pension benefit that you have accumulated in the Plan.
