Logjam in pension pot valuations is ‘causing huge distress’ and costing money for divorcing couples
Current and retired teachers who are getting divorced have said their lives are on hold because of a bureaucratic logjam involving their pensions.
One teacher, Katherine Laird, said she believed she was among “huge numbers” of people who were unable to finalise a divorce while she waited for a valuation from Teachers’ Pensions, with the wait “causing huge distress and also costing money”.
