State of Delaware Office of Pensions
If you die leaving no eligible survivors, your beneficiary will be paid a lump sum equal to the excess, if any, of your accumulated contributions with interest less all pension payments made, including survivor's benefits. You may designate a beneficiary by completing an Actuarial (P-1) form. This form should be updated to reflect any changes in your marital status or dependent children. If there is no designated beneficiary, the sum will be paid to your estate.
