* Money Laundering Identification (MLI)

You will need to submit Money Laundering Information in the form of certified copies# or originals of either your passport OR driving licence (if you have a photo licence we need to see both the card and paper parts) AND a recent utility bill or bank statement issued within the last 3 months (not mobile phone) showing your address.

Company MLI: If your employer is paying into your pension then we will also require a letter from the company on headed paper stating that they are paying into your plan and listing the main signatories/directors. We also require proof of the company address, i.e. a utility bill.

Pension for a minor: If you are setting up a pension for someone under 18 years old then please send money laundering information for them. We require the original or certified copy# of either their birth certificate OR passport. We will also require full MLI for the person paying the premiums.

#A certified copy is where a person of authority (solicitor, teacher, director, post office clerk etc) signs a copy of the original document stating that it is a true copy of the original document. They will need to sign and date the document and add their name and position.

**Discharge Forms

Speak to your existing pension provider and let them know you are transferring the pension. They can then post these forms out to you. You may also want a comparative current valuation to check if you will lose any additional benefits by moving the money. The discharge forms can be obtained mid-transfer or can be requested by your new pension provider if you cannot access these forms although sending them in initially will speed up the process.
