TSC pension status online. Teachers who retire from the Teachers Service Commission (TSC) have a reason to smile.
This is because the Commission has instructed the timely completion of their pension payments.
The compulsory retirement age is sixty (60). Two years before the date of retirement, a notice is provided.
In certain situations, the Commission may grant a shorter retirement notice.
Thousands of teachers who retire each year have previously had to wait for years to collect their pension payments.
Some of these educators died before getting their benefits.

This is matter of the past since TSC consolidated two core departments to expedite pension data processing for thousands of teachers who retire annually.
The combination aims to expedite the processing of teachers’ pension papers before they are submitted to the Treasury for payment.
A teacher is required to, upon receiving the notice:
- Send all essential documentation stated in the notice as soon as possible.
- Fill out the bank forms with the full details of his/her bank account.
- Commute up to a fifth of his or her pension.
- Confirm your tax status with the KRA and settle any outstanding tax liabilities.
