Benefit Illustrator

Welcome to the Benefit Illustrator, designed to provide you with an estimate of your USS benefits at retirement.

Please note: We’re updating this modeller and the underlying assumptions so it reflects the changes to USS from 1 April 2022. The updated modeller will be ready in May 2022, but we’re working to get this ready sooner. In the meantime you can use the modeller on the employer consultation website to get an idea of what your USS benefits might look like in the future.

If you are a current USS member and have received a benefit statement you can login to the illustrator below using your eight digit USS member number. The illustrator will then include in its estimate the value of your benefits as shown on your latest Annual Member Statement, plus an estimate of the future value of benefits to be earned in the scheme up to your retirement. If you haven't received a 2020 or 2021 Annual Member Statement, please contact your employer in the first instance.

If you are not yet a member of USS, or if you only recently joined the scheme, you can use the illustrator by choosing the non-login option below.
