Pension record

What should I do if I find errors on my pension record?

• If the earnings you have received in 2019 or later are incorrect or missing, do the following: Contact the employer who paid your wages. Your employer will send the correct data to the Incomes Register. After that, the data on your pension record will be updated. If your employer is no longer operating or has gone bankrupt, contact your pension provider.
• If the earnings you have received before 2019 are incorrect or missing, do the following: Request the pension provider who sent you the record to investigate the incorrect or missing data. The pension provider will investigate your employment data for the previous six years. For periods dating back further than six years you must present your pension provider with written proof (for example, an employment contract or payslips) of the existence of your employment and the amount of your earnings.
• If your earnings for your public sector employment are incorrect or missing, do the following: If you discover errors in the data of your employment relationship with a local government, the State, the Evangelical-Lutheran Church, Kela, the Bank of Finland or a health and social services county, contact Keva. The six-year limit regarding the pension provider’s obligation to investigate does not apply to the public sector (that is, to Keva).

If you have worked in Finland and your work has been insured under the earnings-related pension acts, you can check your pension record online or order a printed copy of it. You get a posted pension record only if you live in Finland.
