Hi everybody, my partner (not wife) of 15 years recently passed away and I was her nominee for her NHS pension which was deferred when she left work in 2010.
We have 2 children aged 13 and 14 her salary was £30k and she paid into the scheme for 16 years my question is how much is the lump sum and approx how much is the pension worth as if I understand it correctly I think it's 50% for myself and 25% for each child up to 50% for the two of them until they reach the age of 23 I have looked on the site but find it confusing so anyone who understands the NHS/pension system would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks so much
