The Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) has delisted pensioners who failed to confirm their aliveness from the pension payroll.
The commission made this known through a press release signed by the Head of the Corporate Communications Unit, Olugbenga Ajayi and made available on its social media handle on Monday, May 6th, 2024,
The press release said: Following the notification in February 2024 to all pensioners under the Defined Benefit Scheme (DBS), the Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) wishes to inform pensioners who failed to confirm aliveness on their due date that they have been suspended from the pension payroll.
If the affected pensioners confirm aliveness after their due date, they will be automatically restored back to pension payroll for payment in the next payroll cycle and the arrears for every month/payment cycle missed, will be computed and added to the pension.
Check the pension department lists below. If you find your name, log on to https://iamalive.ptad.gov.ng/ to start the process using the facial confirmation option. The “I Am Alive” confirmation is easy, secure and cost effective.
For complaints resolution, send an email toiamalivesupport@ptad.gov.ngwith the details.
“PTAD will never request for BVN, ATM Card details, ATM Card PIN for “I Am Alive” confirmation or cash to process pension payment. BEWARE of Fraudsters. Please emailmonitoring@ptad.gov.ngto report suspicious phone calls or messages.
