Pensioners may also obtain a form online at www.ipfweb.org/BACReliefFund.pdf (please print, complete and mail your form to the Fund office in a sealed envelope.) You can stop the deduction at any time as noted on the form. In January of each subsequent year you will receive a notice confirming the amount of your annual donation for income tax purposes.
