4. On the effective date of transfer to the Yukon Health Authority, I will have less than 2 years of pensionable service with the Federal PSSA. What are my options with respect to accrued Federal PSSA pension pensionable service to the date of transfer?

Answer

You have three options concerning your Federal PSSA pensionable service accrued before the date of transfer to the Yukon Health Authority:

1) Receive a Return of Contributions plus interest upon your date of transfer to the Yukon Health Authority, or

2) Transfer your accrued Federal PSSA pensionable service to the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan via the anticipated Pension Transfer Agreement, or

3) Retain your accrued pensionable service with the Federal PSSA. Under this option, the pensionable service you accrue under the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan will be counted for "threshold purposes only" towards your eligibility for pension options under the Federal PSSA
