This question was answered on 25th March 2026

As at 16 March 2026, the number of members awaiting their initial Remediable Service Statements (RSS) was 37,515.

100,592 members have successfully been issued with their RSS. Any pension adjustments arising from members' elections will be backdated with interest to ensure members receive their full entitlement.

The Ministry of Defence is working with the scheme administrator to finalise the timeline for issuing all RSSs. Once a timeline has been finalised, this will be communicated with members.
