  The Plan includes a Preretirement Survivor Benefit for your spouse or other named beneficiary in case you die after you're vested, but before you retire. The Plan will pay a Preretirement Survivor Benefit equal to 50 percent of the reduced pension benefit you would have received under the Joint and Survivor benefit payment form to your beneficiary if you are vested and die:
  • While in active service, or
  • While receiving a pension disability benefit, or
  • After you terminate employment but before you retire while you are entitled to a deferred vested benefit..

If you are married, vested, and die before you retire, your spouse will automatically receive the PRSB benefit. You and your spouse may waive the benefit and name any other individual as your beneficiary by completing the PRSB Beneficiary Designation Form.

If you are single, widowed, divorced, or your spouse has waived the Preretirement Survivor Benefit, vested, and were in active covered employment on or after Jan. 1, 2002, you can designate one individual to receive your pension benefit in the event of your death. To qualify, you must complete the PRSB Beneficiary Designation Form.
