The Controller and Accountant General’s Department has instructed retired military personnel and military widows who receive government pension under Cap 30 to participate in quarterly validation exercises at a Veterans Administration, Ghana (VAG) District of their choice.
This validation is necessary to ensure the continuation of their monthly pension payments.
According to a statement released by VAG on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, all Cap 30 Pension Associations, including VAG, must validate their members quarterly and submit the returns to the Controller and Accountant General for the processing of pension payments.
Failure to comply with this requirement may result in individuals being removed from the payroll.
The statement, signed by Major (Retired) Amadu Anicks Lawson Dinko on behalf of the Executive Director, urged all military veterans and military widows receiving government pensions to promptly register with a VAG District to avoid any disruptions to their pension payments.
