You may be eligible for an emergency withdrawal if you qualify. The emergency must be a severe financial hardship resulting from a sudden and unexpected illness or accident to you or your beneficiary
, your beneficiary’s spouse, your dependent or your beneficiary's dependent; a loss of your property or your beneficiary’s property because of casualty; or other similar extraordinary or unforeseeable circumstances arising as a result of events beyond your control or your beneficiary's control.
If you are eligible, you may be required to take a loan from your account before you would qualify for an emergency withdrawal.
If OSGP denies the withdrawal, you can appeal the denial through an appeals committee.
To apply for an unforeseeable emergency withdrawal, complete the Unforeseeable Emergency Withdrawal Application (available by clicking the Form button) and submit it to OSGP.
