The Updated Single Scheme Estimator Tool<\/a> is now available on our Single Scheme Website.<\/a><\/p>\n The Single Scheme Estimator Tool is a spreadsheet-based calculator designed to give active Single Scheme members a broad indication of the level of retirement benefits that they may be eligible to receive on reaching their Normal Retirement Age. Because Single Scheme benefits build up every time a member gets paid, it is not possible to provide a precise forecast of your retirement benefits.<\/p>\n To be eligible to receive a retirement benefit under the Scheme, a member must have paid into the Scheme for 24 months or more.<\/p>\n The updated Estimator Tool has been designed to provide a more accurate forecast than the previous tool. As a result, the Estimator now requires additional information that is provided to members in their Annual Benefit Statements. This information includes:<\/p>\n The tool provides Single Scheme members in the following category types with a broad estimate of their retirement benefits at the relevant Normal Retirement Age:<\/p>\n As always, the Estimator is based on a number of underlying assumptions and users should read and note the disclaimer and assumptions.<\/p>\n The Estimator is not suitable for members of the Oireachtas, the President; the Comptroller and Auditor General and other qualifying and designated office holders;<\/p>\n You should read the appropriate \u201cEstimator Tool \u2013 At A Glance Guide\u201d<\/a> before using the Estimator Tool<\/p>\n\n
