Can any of you kind gentleman tell me what happens to your pension if you PVR? I know that if you are, for example, 50, on the PA spine, and you PVR on AFPS 05 you will get your EDP until 65 but was there a 5 year qualifying period?? I've searched the docs and can only find one ambiguous paragraph saying (I think) that you "may not have to" do 5 years before PVRing and getting the benefits of the new scheme. I believe that the initial sign up date was April 03 so I may have to wait until April 08-or maybe as you do 6 mnths after PVRing then November might be OK. I don't want to screw up my pension just for the sake of doing a few more months.
