14. I have noticed, from information available, that the employee contribution rates under the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan are lower in comparison with the Federal Public Service Superannuation Act (Federal PSSA). Does this mean that, if I decide to transfer my accrued Federal PSSA pensionable service to the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan, I will have excess funds available when my Federal PSSA service is recognized under the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan?
No. The fact that lower contribution rates are required under the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan is not indicative of whether there will be excess (or insufficient) funds available from the Federal PSSA for the transfer of your federal pensionable service to the Yukon Health Authority Pension Plan. The primary determinants of whether there will be excess (or insufficient) Federal PSSA funds on transfer of your federal superannuation service will likely be your age, years of pensionable service and the annual salary level of the position to which you are being transferred in comparison with your current position with the Yukon Health Authority.
