The Pension Transitional Arrangement Directorate (PTAD) will commence verification of pensioners of Federal Mortgage Finance Limited and Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria under the Defined Benefit Scheme from Monday July 29, 2024.

It said in a statement on its website that the pensioners should note that they do not have to travel to the state they retired from to be verified.

The statement said, “They can be verified at any of the centers in the geo-political zones where they currently reside.

“Mobile verification will be conducted for sick and infirm pensioners. The original documents of the pensioners must be brought to the verification venue together with proof of infirmity for authentication, before mobile verification can be scheduled.

“Pensioners are advised to be wary of fraudsters as Pension payment is free. PTAD will NEVER request for cash to process your pension. Email monitoring@ptad.gov.ng to report suspicious phone calls or messages.”
