Payslip

** We have introduced a new online service that will allow you to view and print your pension advice for every month of the year.

** In order to use this service all you need to do is register at the following website www.leicestershirepensionfund.org to set up a secure user account linked to your pension record. You will need your National Insurance number to hand in order to register.

** As a result of offering this service we will not be issuing new pensioners with a printed pension advice via the post. The same also applies to your annual P60 statement.

What do the initials ‘GMP’ mean on my payslip?:
Your Local Government Pension is not the State pension, but it can have a relationship with the state pension. In the past the State pension was related to earnings on which National Insurance contributions were paid and it consisted of two parts.

** A basic state pension, and
** An additional pension related to earnings known then as SERPS but more recently as S2P (State second pension).

However, pension schemes, such as ours, which provided an alternative to S2P could “contract out” of this part of the State pension scheme. So members in schemes such as the LGPS paid pension contributions into its own occupational scheme (Leicestershire County Council Pension Fund) and as a result paid lower National Insurance contributions. Contracted-out status ended in April 2016 when the flat rate pension was introduced.

However as part of this arrangement the Leicestershire County Council Pension Fund guarantees that at State pension age the benefits from the scheme will be at least as much as the additional pension they would have received from the State had they remained within S2P and not been contracted out. This is known as the Guaranteed Minimum Pension or GMP.

How do I prove my pension entitlement to a third party?:
You may, from time to time be asked by other organisations such as HMRC or your local Housing Benefit office to confirm in writing how much pension you are receiving from Leicestershire County Council, and when the pension becomes payable. Your online account will store a history of your payslips and P60s. Sending copies of these documents to these organisations should hopefully enable your claim to be processed without any delay. The printed version of our online P60s has been approved by HMRC.
