Upon registration, a certificate of registration stating the account holder's Personal Identification Number (PIN) and other relevant account information will be issued to the RSA Holder. The RSA Holder is then classified by the Pension Fund Administrator into the various fund's structure introduced by the National Pension Commission (PenCom) in accordance with his/her age, the risk profile, and/or choice, as the case may be.

You are eligible to enroll under the Contributory Pension Scheme if you work for the Federal Government, Federal Capital Territory, and Private organization employing at least three people and State that has joined the Scheme.
