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.

Paid to the deceased..

Who is the next of kin as per records? Are you sure its you?
Was he a government employee? Local, State or Federal government employee?
'I happen to be the NOK and the family are thinking I have probably been paid the fund.'
- Why the trust issue? Don't you think this statement is strong? Imagine also suspecting that you killed ...so that you can access 41K

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.

I want to know too...

Since 6 years ago? Nigeria is 4kd mehnn

No1 shud quote me to abuse Buhari abeg... I'm not here to advertise my ignorance

thank God for this thread because my mum died just 2 months ago and I am the next of kin. though mutual benefit and capital express that she had her pensions plan with has contacted me and given me some form to fill so as to access her pensions and benefit, but my question and fear now is she was a police officer I hope they won't take ages before her gratuity is paid? had anyone gone through this as a next of kin to a police officer please what steps did you take?

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?

we dy same page ooo

Op So you want to reap what you did not sow? :-/

OYO, living things have not received theirs and you talking about someone who is gone... if i hear say nigeria pay that kind thing.

You will have to go to his place of work with his death certificate,some of his docs,depends on d type of job he heared but go to the pension department of where he worked,dey will give u guide lines and if d money is already in his acct u will get a lawyer who will apply for letter of administration hence ure d nok but d process takes a while and whatever amount it is in his account d govt has 10%.

Oga, go get a lawyer to handle the stuff for you and save yourselves all the stress. Mind you, lawyer will collect his own percentage. Hope this helps?

Most pple don't knw they are their parents nok. I work wit a firm that deals with retire benefits and death benefits. It shdnt take more than 3 months for you to getbur money paid to you. One of our client died on 4th if DEC, may his blessed soul rest in peace. His family got paid their fathers benefits today. It took less than 2 months. Provided the company was contacted immediately the person die, his money wld be paid promptly. If you are having challenges getting your benefits paid or you want a

lol.... Una go wait tire....

If you have already processed your Letters of Administration from the Probate Registry then follow up the Pension Board. Don't give them breathing space

timely!..... my mum died 5 yrs ago without being paid a dime of her accumulated pension areas,
I've been seeking ways of going about it.....

Get a letter of administration from court, Sure you will need like the death certificate and documents to prove you are the NOK to get that. Then I guess the court can actually explain the other processes to you from there. Hope this works n sorry for ur loss.

If he worked with the federal govt u have to be patient until the accrued right is paid but u have to be ready with the letter of administration then the names on the letter of admin will be paid either jointly or one of them will give consent to the other

DEATH WHAT? YOU WAY DE ALIVE HOW MUCH HAVE YOU BEEN PAID?

A shitcoin startup called Prodeum just exitscammed with millions of investor dollars and left them the following message on their site see the image below... pls help I have been awake since lastweek Thursday

I checked and it has been redirected to https://mobile.twitter.com/AngeloBTC?lang=en

This is Nigeria should you've forgotten...
Nothing works around here.

There must be a pension office/Unit where your dad worked. Go there, you will be given instructions. I don't think still have to wait for the death benefits to be paid, before you can access his contributions though, find out from the PFA, at this stage both the PFA and the insurance company that covers the year your father died will come up with as much huddles as possible so you have to stay strong and be patient

I can help you process the Letters of Administration to facilitate the release of the benefits. You can call or WhatsApp me on: 07033964033 for a chat.

Please continue to follow up with PFA premium in this case. Don't listen to any other advice. I can assure you right process is being follow. The only problem is the current delay but you will be paid.
