If you have a partner and you meet the conditions for partner’s pension, first check your UBS to see whether it shows amounts for your partner and children in the event of your death.
If your UBS states amounts for your partner and children
Your partner and children are already insured. You do not need to inform us of the details of your partner and children. We will be notified automatically by the municipality in which you live in the event of death.
If your UBS does not state amounts for your partner and children
- And you are still in employment, you should contact your employer.
- If you have left employment, your partner’s and orphan’s pension will have lapsed when you left employment. You have the option of converting part of your pension into a partner’s and orphan’s pension if you die before your retirement date. This is known as conversion. You need to arrange this within two months after you leave employment.
