NHS Pension annual statement

I've often seen it mentioned on here that you should get an annual pension statement. I receive these on my old pensions from previous jobs but after 3 years in the NHS have never received one from the NHS. is this right? Is it because it's a final salary pension?

Final salary schemes.
Still working & in scheme - annual benefit statement required.
Left employment (or opted out of scheme) - statement of benefits required within 2 months of Trustees being told, then nothing required until retirement.It only takes one tree to make a thousand matches, it only takes one match to burn a thousand trees. As well, the cars are all passing me, bright lights are flashing me.

I've worked for the NHS since 1976 and have never received an "annual benefit statement" . You can of course get a statement of your estimated pension at any time though it takes a few weeks to come through.0

You need to write to NHS pensions with your NI and Staff Number. They will not automatically send you an annual statement. I apply annually for a statement for my wife's pension. Address below:
NHS Pensions
Hesketh House
200-220 Broadway
Fleetwood
Lancashire
FY7 8LG
The website may well have a calculator as well, but you will need to know your exact number of days NHS qualifying employment and your current band/salary.0 -
Scottish system (SPPA) normally sends out an annual statement. With the Pension Choices this has been put on a back burner. I asked when they were resuming and their best guess was late 2011 early 2012.The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about.

Ah, this may be because NHS is a Relevant Statutory Scheme, which don't always have to follow the same rules as those of us in private sector.It only takes one tree to make a thousand matches, it only takes one match to burn a thousand trees.
