Managing your pension forms

If you wish to make an election for the payment of combined contributions during an absence from pensionable employment, please complete this form.

If you return to pensionable employment after claiming your benefits, you must tell us. For every tax year you're re-employed, you'll need to send us a completed certificate of re-employment. You can also complete this form online.

There is a limit on the amount of benefits you can earn across all registered pension schemes you contribute to. To view The Lifetime Allowance, set by HMRC, visit our updates page. If you think your pension benefits may exceed this allowance, you need to complete this form, so we can assess whether any tax is payable.

If you wish to reinstate contributions withdrawn before 1 June 1973, please complete this form.

This form should only be completed if you wish to elect for the Teachers’ Pension Scheme to pay any Annual Allowance tax charge you are subject to. To be eligible for the Scheme Pays Election, the growth in your benefits in the Teachers’ Pension Scheme in the relevant tax year exceeds £40,000 and the amount of the Annual Allowance Charge for which you are liable for the relevant tax year exceeds £2,000.

If you are a final salary member and want to purchase additional pension with the Teachers' Pension Scheme, complete this form. You can also complete this form online.

If you are a career average member, there are a range of flexibilities available for increasing your benefits including Additional Pension, Faster Accrual and Buy Out. You can also complete this form online.

Please use this form if you have decided to revoke one of your flexibilities.
