2024 is the first year that most  members, who are impacted by the 2015 Remedy (McCloud), will be able to see rolled back statements.  Therefore, if as part of the introduction of alpha, you moved into the alpha scheme before 1 April 2022, your figures will look different in the ABS this year.  As you have been rolled back into your Legacy scheme (classic, classic plus, premium or nuvos) for the Remedy period (1 April 2015 - 31 March 2022), you will be shown this information as well as all service to 31 March 2024.

Please make sure you have registered for the Pension Portal. For further information about Annual Benefit Statements visit the ABS pages.
