Request a pension statement

The pension statement contains

• Information on the expected amount of your standard old-age pension,
• a forecast of the pension you will receive if you continue to work,
• information on the amount of your reduced earning capacity pension,
• information on the earliest possible start date for early retirement pensions with details of pension deductions,
• details of the widow's or widower's pension that your partner will receive if you die,
• details of the contributions paid to the statutory pension insurance scheme to date,
• information on the requirements for all old-age pensions, how to apply for a pension, additional earnings, insurance history, private pension provision, taxation, information and advice options and health insurance for pensioners,
• if your account has not yet been clarified: information on which periods have not yet been clarified (these are periods of which the pension insurance company does not know whether they can be taken into account for your future pension),
• an overview of the insurance periods recorded,
• an overview of the values and factors used to calculate your personal earnings points and your standard old-age pension.

Note:
The pension statement is not the same as the pension information (often referred to as the "pension notice"), which you receive every year from the age of 27. The pension information provides very comprehensive information about other pension entitlements. As soon as you reach the age of 55, you will automatically receive a pension statement every 3 years instead of pension information. However, you can also request the information if you are younger.

Requirements

• You are or were insured with Deutsche Rentenversicherung.
• You have paid contributions to statutory pension insurance for at least five years.
• You are not yet drawing a pension from your own insurance.
