Art. 35a Bundesgesetz vom 25. Juni 1982 über die berufliche Alters-, Hinterlassenen- und Invalidenvorsorge (BVG) - Rückerstattung zu Unrecht bezogener Leistungen
BVG; Zweiter Teil: Versicherung; Erster Titel: Obligatorische Versicherung der Arbeitnehmer; 6. Kapitel: Gemeinsame Bestimmungen für die Leistungen
Art. 35a BVG · Rückerstattung zu Unrecht bezogener Leistungen
Unrechtmässig bezogene Leistungen sind zurückzuerstatten. Von der Rückforderung kann abgesehen werden, wenn der Leistungsempfänger gutgläubig war und die Rückforderung zu einer grossen Härte führt.
Der Rückforderungsanspruch erlischt drei Jahre, nachdem die Vorsorgeeinrichtung davon Kenntnis erhalten hat, spätestens aber fünf Jahre seit der Auszahlung der einzelnen Leistung. Wird der Rückforderungsanspruch aus einer strafbaren Handlung hergeleitet, für welche das Strafrecht eine längere Verjährungsfrist festsetzt, so ist diese Frist massgebend.
