Change to annual declaration/life certificate process for pensioners

Update 11/11/2025:

Annual declaration/life certificates are no longer routinely used for RBF pensioners who reside in Australia.  We will issue these from time to time if required.

We encourage all RBF pensioners to:

  • keep their personal details up to date with us
  • complete the change of personal details form if any changes occur
  • be aware we may require you to complete a Life Pension Declaration in the future.


Previous article 06/06/2023:

RBF Pensioners with a Tasmanian residential address are no longer required to complete an annual declaration/life certificate.

If you live on mainland Australia or overseas then we will still send you an annual declaration/life certificate to complete each year or you can call the Enquiry Line and confirm your details over the phone after meeting standard identification requirements (via a recorded call).​
