Since each
members situation is different, I have elected to scan the Pension
Guide Q & A which was put out in January of 2005 as an aid to
highlight the pension plan changes.
2004 CPR Pension Plan Rules
Jan 2005 Pension Guide
In addition to the guide, CPR
Pension Services mails an Annual Pension Statement to each employee
every year. This document is required to be sent by law so if
you have not received your statement please call the number at
the top of this page and request a copy. This statement will
answer most of your specific questions including:
This
statement will not include benefits administered by the RRB.
Members who qualify for an RRB pension will have their CPR portion
reduced accordingly. Please see the
RRB
section of this site for information on contacting the RRB.
At the current time neither CP nor the
union provide financial counseling in regards to
employee pensions. However members with questions
may also wish to contact the local chapter of the CP
Pensioners Association as well:
