Child’s pension (Digital section members yet to take their benefits)

Child’s pension (Digital section members yet to take their benefits)

Under the Rules, no child’s pension is payable. However, if you’re yet to take your benefits and die after your normal retirement date, a benefit may be payable. Please contact the Plan’s administrator, Trafalgar House for more information.

The Plan defines eligible children as follows:

• Your natural children
• Stepchildren if they are financially dependant on the you at date of your death
• Children legally adopted by you
• Any other children who, in the Trustee’s opinion, were dependent on you at the date of your death

A pension paid to a child will be payable until age 18 (or age 23 if your child remains in full-time education or training approved by the Trustee). If, in the Trustee’s opinion any child is suffering from a mental or physical disability which would have rendered the child dependent on you, a pension will continue to be paid to them for as long as they remain in that situation.
