First you determine if the late (hard luck) was part of the contributory pensions scheme or not. I believe he was before demise. If so, his entitlement is lodged with his PFA. Take your Letter of Admin to his PFA, along with other necessary documents like valid ID, BVN. Then they'll be verified and if found valid will be submitted to PenCom who will authorize payment. It takes a while but you'll definitely be paid. If the deceased retired before June 2009 there'll be an accrued right payment that has to be done to his PFA before payment of the benefit to you the NOK. First determine his status before you lay claim because some scrupulous person in the pensions office could capitalize on your lack of knowledge to swindle you of funds.

He died in active service, few years to his retirement, can you shed more light please. Thanks

I must confess to you, it's a very long process and you have to be patient.

Step 1: You need to get the National Population Commission death certificate

Step 2: Process the letter of administration with the death certificate, your dad's documents and every siblings details....they will ask for passports (it takes btw 3-5months to process in some states

Step3: Go to the pension administrator and submit detail, fill the forms. You will need the letter of administration at this stage.

Step 4: You will most likely need an attestation or affidavit that you are the next of kin or if there is more than one NOKs

Step 5: Wait for the details to be sent for approval and the will call you at the ministry of justice to come for your cheque...


Any other info.....

I have done all the above mentioned sir.

Did your dad die in active service?

Yes he did, he died 3 years to retirement

18wheeler:
I understand he deceased was a police officer. I think they withdrew from the contributory pensions scheme (I may be mistaken) so they manage their pensions and death benefits themselves which I cannot say or help as it may. I can only talk of those within the contributory ensigns scheme and can even link you up with someone in premium pensions that can guide you towards getting your full entitlements. You may contact me via text on 08029114448

Can I send you a WhatsApp message on the number? Thanks

The typical problems with blacks, you suffer even for your rights and entitlements. And then after untimely dead takes over...

BTW, are you the next of kin?

Yes sir

Jcob:
Put all documents together including the letter of administration and take all to the pension fund manager. Follow up with them closely and you should get paid max 6 months. They might want to pull some stunts though.

Thanks. Done that already

Eeyah. So sorry about this. If you are in Abuja go to National Pension Commission in Wuse 2. Tell them the Security that u are going to B$I Dept. They will tell you what to do. It is unfortunate that it is up to six years. But do what i said pls. National pension Commission ensures that all death benefits must be as at and when due.

I stay in Ogun state. Thanks for the concern.

mandmis007:

Hello Nairalanders,

Please I would like to confirm from resourceful persons on how death benefits are paid, most especially in the area of the savings in the retirement savings account and the gratuity to be paid by the government via the account.

My dad passed on some six years ago, and up till now we have not been able to access the death benefits with premium pensions despite various documentation processes.

I happen to be the NOK and the family are thinking I have probably been paid the fund.

In all truthfulness, there are financial needs in the family especially young children in school and the Pension Administrator said as at December 2017 that they were waiting for the Pension Commission to send the Bond to them which takes up to a year to arrive .

My question is this, does the pension act give room for the retirement savings in the account to be paid pending when the bond will arrive at Premium Pensions.

Meaningful inputs/help will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.
