How to request a pension valuation
In order to have a pension valued you will need to follow these four steps:
- Download and print the pension questionnaire and the authorization form.
- Complete the questionnaire and the authorization form. The authorization usually needs to be completed by the plan member (in some cases the authorization can be signed by the spouse). The questionnaire is fairly brief and the authorization form will allow us to contact the pension plan administrator to get any pension plan information that we need in order to do the valuation.
- Please send us the completed forms. Please note that it is very helpful if you also provide a copy of the annual pension statement closest to the date of separation and a copy of the pension plan booklet or plan text if it is not available on the internet. You can send us the completed forms by mail, email (a scanned copy) or by fax.

- birth date
- the value of RRSP/locked-in retirement accounts at the date of separation
- the amount of any contributions that were being made to RRSPs at the date of separation (so that we can project the retirement accounts to retirement)
