Now that you have remarried or are in a new common-law relationship, you may be wondering whether you or your children are still entitled to public service pension plan benefits.

-
Does the survivor benefit under the public service pension plan cease if you remarry?
No. The survivor benefit is payable for life and is not affected by remarriage.
-
Is the payment of the child allowance affected by your remarriage or new common-law relationship?
No. The child allowance for a surviving child is paid until the end of the month when the child turns 18 or, if 18 or older, until the child stops attending an educational institution full-time or turns 25, whichever occurs first.
