Pension Advice

Thanks to all who gave advice on Wills regarding my terminally ill Mum. I haven't spoken to her regarding the advice given as she is still coming to terms with it all. Something I thought of and would like some advice on is what happens to her pension. It won't be much as she has only worked for the last 9 years or so and I don't think she joined straight away, plus her wage is very low but, are there any rules for accessing a pension when terminally ill? Her age is nearly 53 and she would have been due to retire at approx 61 1/2, I think.

Thank you once again.

I dont think there are nay firm rules , but while looking into my company pesion , there was provision for early retirement due to ill health.

I believe it varies according to the scheme. Talk to the trustees and get the scheme particulars.

The Pension Scheme Registry will be able to quickly give you contact details Tel. 0191 225 6316

OPAS will be able to give general help & advice

Oops! just realised, I meant to post this to uk.legal. I guess pension advice is appropriate here though.

More appropriate here, I'd say.
