How long could a final salary pension transfer take?
Our step-by-step guide takes you through the stages of transferring your final salary pension.
Stage 1
You request a ‘statement of entitlement’ from your pension scheme.
Stage 2 - After one month
Your pension scheme should notify you that you need to take professional financial advice.
Stage 3 - After three months
Your pension scheme confirms the ‘transfer value’ of your pensions and will send the paperwork with a deadline to take financial advice.
Stage 4 - After six months
This is your deadline to confirm that you want to transfer your pension and provide proof that you have taken financial advice.
Stage 5 - After nine months
This is the deadline for your pension scheme trustee to complete the transfer.
