i've searched through most of the pension threads and haven't found a direct answer for this...i'm leaving my contract early at the 8 month mark and my employer is well aware of this so i'm not just leaving out of the blue...

when i go to the pension office, since i have my e-ticket already, is there anything extra i need to bring with me besides, my bank information at home, passport, ARC and e-ticket...do i need to bring the original contract and do i need a letter or release stating that the company knows i'm leaving?

thank you in advance...

Pulled up an old post with the same question but I thought I'd piggy back on this thread here, too. Is it absolutely neccessary to have a Bank Book from my Canadian account when I apply for my pension refund....or is it okay to simply have the account information (institution code/transit number etc)? The pension website says I need "a bank book or similar (registered to the person making the claim)."

the account info will suffice

Make sure you don't wait to the last minunute to claim your pension in case your boss hasn't paid and needs some nudging.

Thanks lads. Appreciate it.

You need: 1. passport 2. ARC 3. return ticket with departure date 4. bank book OR bank statement OR remittance receipt from a ROK bank showing your home country's account info.

DO NOT waltz into a pension office w/your bank a/c info scribbled on a scrap of paper. That is not acceptable proof to the bureaucracy.

If all goes well, you'll have the money in about 5 weeks.

It's not scribbled....it's neatly typed. Thanks though. Must get this squared away, pronto.

Can you tell me what an ARC is? I want to cash my pension in too.
thanks
