The purpose of these online resources is to streamline and simplify pension applications.

On November 16, 2024, Form 6-A will take the place of Form 6 in use. This revised form compiles all necessary data into a single application. Instead of using the antiquated Common Nomination Form (Form A), retiring employees must use Form 6-A for nominations. Nine forms and formats are combined in the most recent form. Form 6, Form 8, Form 4, Form 3, A, Format 1, Format 9, FMA, and Zero Option Form are combined under the nine forms/formats.
