The form should not be used if you have multiple active employments at UiB, are retiring, or if you are changing jobs within UiB. In such cases, you must contact your manager.

You must fill out the pension application form and submit the completed form to your leader at least three months before retirement.

If you wish to retire with a full or partial old-age pension after turning 67 and before turning 70, you must contact your leader for further clarifications regarding the retirement date, remaining vacation days, and the potential job percentage for partial retirement.

When you leave your position at UiB, you will receive a final settlement. The final settlement may include accrued holiday pay, travel time, and unused vacation days. What your final settlement contains depends on various factors.

The final settlement is usually paid out the month after the last regular salary payment. If you retire with AFP, your final settlement is generally paid together with the last regular salary payment.
