    The answer is, it depends.

    If you have not yet retired your estate or designated beneficiary is entitled to your vested amount in the fund. Some plans also have a pre-retirement death benefit funded by life insurance.

    If you have retired and are collecting a monthly amount, if you chose a survivor option your designated beneficiary will receive their portion.
