PBGC continues to calculate the final benefit amount that participants will receive from their Circuit City pension plan. This process takes at least three years. However it can take longer, depending on the complexity of the pension plan's provisions and the valuation of its assets.
So far, we have sent final benefit determinations to 778 participants in the Retirement Plan of Circuit City Stores. We expect to send final benefit determinations to the remaining 20,000 participants by Sept. 30, 2014.
