Supposed to see her end of January to know what is going to happen but the appointment hasn't come yet.

Also I see I'm getting taxed more on my TRR than I was before so I'm coming out with less.

What advice did I ignore? Apart from contacting the union?

Apart from yourself the next best people to have an interest in getting this sorted out is you union, so deciding not to talk to them in a unionised organisation would be ignoring a very significant piece of advice to most people.

If the CMO recommends ill health retirement, you’ll qualify for free additional years up to normal retirement age that would boost the value of your pension/lump sum relative to what it’s worth at the moment.

Your HR unit should be able to advise. Union reps don’t have this level of specialist knowledge.

Keep sending the certs regardless until the matter is resolved. Don’t walk away just because the payment may be coming to an end.

Thanks very much for this advice. A lot of the time I feel like trowing the towel in but I'll keep on sending in my certs. Sure they'd be only delighted if I stopped.

The union wouldn't know and I wouldn't trust them with confidential medical details. I've heard myself sensitive information about other people through union reps. It's not exactly a modern organisation.

Just wondering can anyone advise, does the HSE pension calculator cover the ill health retirement pension? It gives the option to enter pension with preserved benefits but doesn't specify which ones this covers. Thanks
