Pension legislation

​In most cases, a member's accumulated pension funds are subject to provincial pension legislation.

The legislation that applies to you is that of the province in which you are currently working. 

If you're no longer working for one of the CSS Pension Plan's employer members, then the applicable legislation would be that of the province where you last worked while contributing to the Plan, regardless of where you may be living now.

  • Your options for drawing retirement income 
    Survivor benefits
