Marital or civil partnership status changes

You should update your personal profile in Shell People on HR Online, to indicate your change of status, and you should complete a new SCPF Death in Service Nomination Form.

The Adult Dependants factsheet explains what you need to do to ensure that your Employing Company is aware of your partner as a dependant in the event of your death in service.

It is important to make sure you complete a SCPF Death in Service Nomination Form, and keep it up to date. Your Employing Company will then know who you wish to receive the lump sum and take this into account when making a full assessment of your personal circumstances if you die in service.

If you have paid AVCs you should also complete an AVC Death Benefits Nomination Form as well as the SCPF Death in Service Nomination Form. The value of your AVC fund, returnable on death, is considered separately as it is payable at the discretion of the Trustee. 

Further information about AVCs is available under Additional Voluntary Contributions (AVCs) and in the SCPF AVC explanatory booklet.
