Pension ??
It is always on the same day of the month (or 1-2 days earlier if the due date falls on a weekend or PH); the exact date varies from individual to individual.
Paymaster is very reliable, in my experinece. I hope it remains free from the reported problems of JPA!

Yup. He's never missed a beat. On the dot 24th every month.
Don't see why the pension payout should get involved in JPA - I thought JPA was supposed to be a day-to-day admin tool.

Mine's never! I PVR'd in '73 after 13 1/2 years service. The small print in those days meant I only got a gratuity that barely covered the IRT. So not everything is for the worse now!

Date of Pension Payment
SFAIK it is paid on the same day of the month, every month obviously, based on the date when it was first paid. For many of us it is one's 55th birthday. You become entitled to it the day after your birthday and it is then paid monthly in arrears.

Mine goes in on the 22nd, I did ask for a particular date but was told by the Pensions HQ that it is dealers choice from the Paymaster.
I have had cause to speak to the Paymaster Office a couple of times. No P60's for the tax returns, they have been brilliant (Call center not in Mubai) and sorted out the problem within days, Long may it stay that way!

A problem there because February 29, 2008 is the next leap year, with 29 days in February. February 2008 has five Fridays - it starts and ends on a Friday. Interestingly enough between 1904 and 2096, leap years with same day of week for each date repeat every 28 years so that means that the last time February had 5 Fridays was in 1980 and next time will be in 2036.
Still I guess you would just get big pension payments every 4 years.
