PENSION INFORMATION
Please retain the following information for your records, so that when you do apply, you will have correctly filled out the necessary documents, which will ensure timely payments of the first monthly benefit that you would be entitled to. Only the Trustees of each individual pension fund can provide advice to you When applying for a Social Security Disability Award, you should apply for your Local 90 Pension at Insurance Programmers at the same time. This way, should you receive the award from Social Security, you will be able to collect your Local 90 pension on the first day of the month following five (5) full calendar months after the initial date of your disability. Upon deciding when you will elect to retire at the normal retirement age, first, you must contact Insurance Programmers at the phone and address listed on attached sheet. The I.B.E.W. Local Union No. 90 Pension is located at Insurance Programmers in Wallingford, Connecticut. It is your responsibility to notify them immediately, when you know the date in which you are retiring. The next step is to notify the Local Union 90 office 2 North Plains Industrial Road in Wallingford, Connecticut at (203-624-6638) regarding the date in which you intend to retire. The pension applications (from the International and NEBF) will then be requested in writing by this office. Upon receiving them at the union office, they will be reviewed, signed and sent to you. It is then your responsibility to complete them in their entirety and return ONLY the International pension application back to the L. U. 90 office accompanied by all documents requested. It is to your advantage to complete and return them as soon as possible. We will then forward all documents to Washington for you.
Next, complete the NEBF application and send it directly to the NEBF accompanied by all documents requested. There will be an envelope enclosed in your package. REMEMBER TO:
