Do I lose my ex husbands private pension if I remarry?
Typically, you won’t lose the income from your ex-husband’s pension if you remarry, because the QDRO document ensures your continued right to receive these funds.
Will my partner get my pension if I die?
When you die, some of your State Pension entitlements may pass to your widow, widower or surviving civil partner. Your spouse or civil partner may be entitled to any extra state pension you are entitled to if you put off claiming it when you reached state pension age.
What happens to my pension if I die after 75?
If you are 75 or older, your dependants will have to pay tax on what they receive. They can continue the drawdown and carry on taking an income from it. If you are 75 or older they’ll pay income tax on what they receive. They can use the remaining fund to purchase an annuity.
How long do you receive survivors benefits?
Generally, spouses and ex-spouses become eligible for survivor benefits at age 60 — 50 if they are disabled — provided they do not remarry before that age. These benefits are payable for life unless the spouse begins collecting a retirement benefit that is greater than the survivor benefit.
