IF YOU LEAVE YOUR JOB

One of the benefits of a pension from OPTrust is that it is portable. If you leave your job, you have a number of choices. You can:

  • transfer the value of your pension to a locked-in retirement account (before age 55)
  • transfer the value to another eligible pension plan
  • leave the money at OPTrust and get a pension any time after age 55.
