Field help:
Did you receive any other pension before this pension?
If your pension was preceded by another pension from the deceased spouse / civil partner, for example, disability pension or retirement pension, select "Yes".
This regulation only applies if the previous pension ended after 31.12.2004.
For the subsequent pension, the actual pension start is not determined, but a notional pension start is determined and used as the basis for the calculation. This usually results in more favourable taxation for your pension.
