    Items [in brackets like this should be changed to reflect your personal information] For example, if your name is Frederick John Smith, in the letter you write to the administrators you would change the template letters shown on the following pages from: Name: [My Full Name] to: Name: Frederick John Smith

    You will be writing to the administrators of each of your pension funds. The name and address of your pension fund administrators will be provided in the Pension Plan Rules which are usually published as a booklet and made available to pension fund members. If you do not have a copy of the rules, the Human Resources / Personnel Department of your current and/or former employers should be able to provide a booklet and the administrators contact details. Before transferring a UK pension, the plan administrators may require evidence of National Insurance Contributions. When you leave UK employment, your employer is obliged to issue a form P45 which details these contributions (among other things). This document will usually satisfy the pension plan administrators. However, if you do not have a P45 you can obtain a statement of your contributions by writing or telephoning the National Insurance Office a sample letter is provided below. Their telephone number is: 44 (0) 191 2256677
