Hi,

Ex and I agreed by way of court Order to share pensions. I offered x to her.

Court Order states that X pension are to be transferred to her.

This was in 2009.

Now 2018 the pension is still in my name. I still receive yearly updates, it appears when I logon to the pension Co website.
I have called my pension Co. and they agree they have all the court paper work & just need her to say what what she wants to do - continue with pension Co/transfer to another etc. She has failed to reply. They expect nothing more from me. I have a letter from pension Co stating this.

Questions I have:
(1) I know SHE is on housing benefit & did receive JSA as when I applied for child maintenance I received only the standard £5/wk. Thats right I (father) was awarded the child by way of court Order. I believe she hasnt done anything with the pension as this will impact either her benefits now or in future retirement. Im 50 she is 49. is this true?

(2) what happens I die tomorrow (dont plan on that just yet)?

(3) what happens when Im 55?

many thanks
