Pension Bonus Bereavement Payment

Pension Bonus Bereavement Payment is a tax-free, lump sum payment for the surviving partner of a deceased Pension Bonus Scheme member who did not make their claim for Age Pension and Pension Bonus before they died.

Note: The Pension Bonus Scheme is closed to new entrants from 20 September 2009. However, the surviving partner of a deceased member of the Pension Bonus Scheme may still claim and be paid a Pension Bonus Bereavement Payment after that date.
