PSI22.6.2 - Operational Procedures: General Examination - LSAS Actuarial Valuation Reports (AVRs) - Timescale


(This archived guidance relates to HMRC discretionary practice before the 6th April 2006. For current guidance on Registered Pension Schemes see the Registered Pension Schemes Manual)

The effective date of the next valuation of an approved scheme must not be more than 3 years and 6 months from the date on which the scheme was established and, in general, the interval between the effective dates of subsequent valuations must not be more than this.

Public Sector schemes which fulfil the conditions of section 66(1) of the Social Security Pensions Act 1975 may extend the interval between effective dates to not more than 5 years.

Administrators of LSAS have two years from the effective date in which to submit the AVR to us.
