    You should contact the trustees of your pension and ask them how to supply them with an "expression of wish". You can then nominate whoever you want to benefit.

    I already have nominated my partner so all is good
    Treat other's how you like to be treated.

    Do I need to fill in a nomination form to make sure my spouse, civil partner or relevant partner receives compensation when I die?
    You only need to fill out a nomination form if you wish to nominate a relevant partner who is not your spouse or civil partner.

    A relevant partner is someone you are not married to but who you live with as if you are married.

    This is the info from The PPF who pay my pension

    As has been said, there may be small print that they can't be a relevant partner if you're not free to marry each other. It's probably a specific question that needs asking.
    Don't listen to me, I'm no expert!
  • Hope you get it sorted in time. At least you know the situation and are in an honest relationship.
    Do whatever is right.
    Not like what happened to me:
    Nearly 32 years with a man - 25 yrs I thought I was married to him to find out he is a bigamist and the biggest liar in the world.
