National Transfer Agreement

Welcoming the Special Forces Pension Plan to the National Transfer Agreement!

Welcome to the central resource for the National Public Service Pension Transfer Agreement. This agreement allows the transfer of pensionable service and funds between participating public service defined benefit pension plans across Canada.

Alberta Pensions Services Corporation (APS) now manages the agreement, taking over from Nova Scotia Pension Services Corporation. We sincerely thank Nova Scotia Pension Services Corporation for their many years of dedicated service in administering the agreement.

This site serves as a resource, offering documentation and updates related to the administration of transfers under the agreement.
