Notes
Once the Administrator receives this form from the former spouse,
it must provide the spouse with information regarding the Member's Pension and notify
the spouse before it acts on any directions given by the Member.
In accordance with current legislation, to be designated as a Limited Member of the Pension Plan,
the spouse must also complete the Request for Designation as Limited Member of Pension Plan
(Form 2).
If, as a Limited Member of the Pension Plan, the spouse wishes to receive a transfer of the lump
sum value of his/her proportionate share or receive a separate Pension, the spouse must complete
a Request by Limited Member for Transfer or Pension (Form
4).
If the agreement or court order between the spouse and Member was made prior to
July 1, 1995, the spouse should complete the Request in Relation to a Matured Pension
Divided under an Agreement or Court Order made before July 1, 1995 (Form 5) instead
of this form.
Questions on completing the form should be directed to the Plan
Administrator.
Completed forms should be forwarded to the Plan
Administrator. |
