Benefit Payments and Direct Deposit. When your pension begins, you receive a benefit payment each month (unless you receive a mandatory cash-out payment or you have elected a voluntary cash-out of your benefit). You can elect payment by mail or through electronic direct deposit. We encourage benefit recipients to sign up for direct deposit.
The benefit in a defined benefit pension plan is determined by a formula that can incorporate the employee's pay, years of employment, age at retirement, and other factors. A simple example is a Dollars Times Service plan design that provides a certain amount per month based on the time an employee works for a company.
