Submit an s120 insolvency notice

When the sponsoring employer of a scheme becomes insolvent you need to let us know within 14 days.

This notification should be completed by insolvency practitioners, their authorised employees or agents, to give us details of an insolvency where required under section 120 of the Pensions Act 2004.

You need to log in or register for our online service to submit your s120 notice.

  • Even if you were registered with the s120 service on our old website, if this is the first time you’ve used the new s120 notification service on ppf.co.uk you'll need to re-register by selecting ‘Create account’ and following the steps.
  • If you’ve registered on ppf.co.uk before but have forgotten your password, please reset your password by clicking on ‘Forgot password?’, entering your registered email address and following the steps that will be sent to you.

Until further notice, submissions will not load if more than two insolvency practitioner contacts are populated. Please do not enter details for more than two insolvency practitioner contacts.

You only need to provide the details of the insolvency practitioner and the employers as we already hold the details of the associated pension schemes.

When you submit an s120 notification using this online service we will transmit the information to the Pensions Regulator (TPR) and the trustees of any occupational pension schemes, that we and TPR have been advised to be associated with that employer. By submitting notifications of insolvencies here insolvency practitioners are meeting their statutory obligations as required under section 120 of the Pensions Act 2004.
