Using the Pension Estimator

Learn how to estimate the amount of the monthly retirement pension payable to you from the pension plan based on your expected retirement date.

What is the Pension Estimator?

The Pension Estimator is a tool provided to assist you in preparing for your financial future. All amounts provided are estimates and subject to formal calculation before retirement.

The Estimator allows you to enter different retirement dates to see the effect of retiring at various ages. You can also see the impact of having a spouse at retirement or not.

Important: Your actual future pension payments can only be determined when you submit an actual retirement application, which may differ from the estimates provided.
