Welcome to PBGC

If you recently received a letter telling you that PBGC is now responsible for paying your pension benefit, this page is your gateway to PBGC.

Your pension benefit is safe and secure. You are our customer, and we look forward to serving you.

If you are currently receiving a pension benefit, your payments will continue without interruption. If you are not yet receiving a pension benefit, we will begin paying you as soon as you are eligible and apply to receive your pension benefit.
