When you join the Scheme, you can ask to transfer any eligible previous pension(s) you have into the Fund within the first 12 months of joining.
If your request is accepted, the value of the transfer would give you additional pension, which is used to offer benefits when you retire. If you transfer a previous LGPS pension, it’ll be automatically combined unless you elect to keep them separate within 12 months of joining.
If you transfer in a pension from another public sector pension scheme, your transfer may also give you some additional membership in the LGPS. Your employer will give you the necessary form to start the process when you start your employment and you’ll be given information to make a decision before any transfer payments are made.
