Even unmarried individuals may be able to make their partners eligible for a partner's pension under certain circumstances. The prerequisite is a joint household that has existed for at least five years. If this is the case for you, you can report the beneficiary using the form "Notification regarding domestic partnerships".

If the conditions for a partner's pension are not met, partners may be beneficiaries at least for the lump-sum death benefit. Simply send us the form "Notification regarding beneficiaries of the lump-sum death benefits". Upon receipt of the form, we will verify the claim and send you a written confirmation.
