Is My Pension Insured?
PBGC protects the retirement security of millions of people — and their families — who count on pensions offered by their employers. If you're in a PBGC-insured pension plan, when you retire you'll have guaranteed income that you can't outlive. Is your plan one of the thousands that PBGC insures?
PBGC maintains a list of pension plans that recently paid premiums to PBGC. Search that list using the search box above. Plans on the list probably are covered; plans not on the list probably are not. We have two types of plans: single-employer plans and multiemployer plans. Visit those pages for some exceptions, and visit the links on the right to find out more. If your plan has ended and been taken over by PBGC, you will find it in our list of trusteed plans.
Searching the list is easy — enter any of the following into the search box above:
- Your pension plan's name
- Your employer's name or Employer Identification Number
- City or state where your plan is based
The plans on this list are managed by a plan administrator, not PBGC, and we do not have the names of individual workers and retirees in these plans. We have only limited information about these plans, drawn from their premium filings. More information is available in their required reporting to the U.S. Department of Labor. If you have questions about your plan's provisions or your specific benefit, call your plan administrator at the phone number provided.
To find out for sure if your pension plan is insured by PBGC, ask your plan administrator for a Summary Plan Description. The Summary Plan Description states whether your plan is covered by PBGC.
If you have called your plan administrator and still need help from PBGC, please call our Participant Customer Contact Center at 1-800-400-7242. If you are a plan administrator and have questions about this list please contact our Practitioner Contact Center at 1-800-736-2444.
