Deferred pension benefits
An entitlement to deferred pension benefits arises when a member:
- leaves Local Government employment or opts out of the LGPS with at least 2 years' qualifying membership
- has previous LGPS rights anywhere else in England & Wales and is not entitled to the immediate payment of retirement benefits
Deferred benefits are calculated in the same way as retirement benefits but based only on membership built up to the date of leaving.
