  • State Second Pension

    State Second Pension (S2P) (also known as additional State Pension) is paid on top of your basic State Pension. The amount of S2P you will get depends solely on the National Insurance contributions you pay while you work.

    You can get a Retirement Pension Forecast from the DWP by filling in form BR19. Go to your local Benefits Agency office for a form or telephone 0191 2187585 and they will fill it in for you over the phone. Or you can ask for a forecast online. See Quick Links - DWP Website to go to the DWP website.

    We have carefully chosen a company called Origen (which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority) to give Railways Pension Scheme members independent financial advice. See Quick Links - Origen to visit their website.
