Zimbabwe: Survivor's Pension or Grants

Survivor's pensions or grants are normally paid to the spouse and children of a deceased national pension scheme contributor or pensioner. If the deceased person is unmarried, then a pension or grant may be paid to the person's parents or other dependant registered as a dependant with NSSA.

Whether it is a pension or grant that is paid depends on the period that contributions were made to the national pension scheme. At least 10 years, or 120 months to be more precise, of contributions are required for a pension.
