A question for the pension gurus please:
I have 3yrs 313 days Army Service - 3yrs and 1 day count towards my pension. I was British Army 1990 - 1994.
I joined the RAF in 1997 and plan to complete 19yrs with them, giving me a total of 22yrs pensionable service. With the RAF i am on the 75 scheme
With me so far?!
My questions are:
1. I do not know what pension scheme i was on with the Army (17 yr old sprog and wasn't interested then!) and having looked through all my paperwork i cannot find any mention of it. How do i find out?
2. Will my army pension autmatically have been aggregated with my RAF pension?
3. If it isn't aggregated, should i get it aggregated?
4. With regards to redundancies, i may find myself in Tranche 2, although i now have 18yrs pensionable military service, i am concerned that the army 3yrs will not count.
5. Any advice/recommendations?
6. Anybody recommend someone to speak to (i am not a member of the FPS).
Thank you.
