Thanks
Thank you for the valuable comments so far. I'm in an unusual position having been on '75 and in receipt of that for a while but now on '05 as PA. I'm also a smidge beyond 55 so I don't think the pension calculator is much use as it simply doesn't cater for that - hence the goat with SPVA.
I also understand that I must give 6 months notice - I assume that is calendar months rather than 6 x 4 weeks.
This all sounds a bit naive but I'm a little out on a limb and it is really difficult to get any sort of definitive answer from anyone in the 'system', particularly as they seem to have no liability for giving incorrect information.
Essentially I want to take full resettlement, want to give minimum notice and don't want to find any surprises lurking around any corners once I have popped it into JPA.
Thanks for the good stuff so far.
