What happens if there is more than one eligible child?

The pension payable to an eligible child depends on how many eligible children there are:

  • One child will receive1/4 of the members pension
  • Two children will each receive ΒΌ of the members pension
  • Three children will each receive 1/6 of the members pension
  • Four children will each receive 1/8 of the members pension

If there are more than four children, the four oldest children get a pension, any younger children will only get a pension once one of the older eligible children cease to be eligible.
