It might not be 10%, but you certainly lose some of it. AFAIK, it goes like this.

If you have, for example, 28 years of service and are leaving on normal terms (ie, not PVR), then you'll get the full 28 year pension packge. However, if you PVR, then you'll lose a couple of years of qualifying pension. In this case, you'll get 26 years of pension.

As previous mentioned, try punching the info into the pension calculator with normal leaving and PVR leaving terms and you'll see the differences.

checked on pension calc and it appears to me to make no difference , the calc doesnt even ask what engagment on so cant know if you are leaving early or not, you just have to complete 22 to get pension.

leaving at 23 out of 30 appears to pay more not less than leaving on completion of 22 of 22 engagement,

makes sense really as you had more service not less

still not 100% tho

open to the floor....

There is no option to do this on the calculator.

How about if you leave at 22 point, you get 22 years worth of pension. If yo leave at 25 you get 25 years of pension... etc etc.

Officers only

Officers only

If an officer does not leave at his or her usual exit point then they take a small dip in pension.

Does not apply to airmen.

It's me

I've been asked to defend my position.....

If I input my details on the pensions calculator and state differing leaving dates according to my position then I get different levels of dosh. Nuff sed.

So, where is the button that says 'are you going out on PVR etc'? The amounts calculated are based on time served and rank/final salary.

The pension calculator does not ask if you've PVRd!!

Simply start & end date.
