For all types of retirement, it is required that you submit the below:
- RB1 & RB1(D)
- Copy of Birth certificate
- Copy of passport/Driving Licence
- Copy of Marriage/Civil Partnership/Divorce Decree Absolute certificate
- Copy of Spouses/Partners birth/death certificate
These forms contain the ability to add an electronic image of a member’s signature, we realise that for some, this may prove difficult. Both electronic and wet signatures will be accepted. Additionally, we are able to accept either an electronic or hard copy of the above documents in order to process a retirement.
In line with Data protection protocols, the Fund may also, prior to processing the member's benefits, contact the member by telephone to check that they have completed the forms.
Before you process any redundancy/business efficiency retirements, grant flexible retirements, or waive any actuarial reductions for members, we advise that an estimate is run through the Employer Self-Service to establish any potential costs to the employer.
Note - There may be circumstances in which you don’t have all the required forms, once received please send these to DMT@wolverhampton.gov.uk
