# Missing Participants Program – Payment Instructions

There are three options for transferring funds to PBGC for the Missing Participants Program. The preferred option is for funds to be sent electronically via Pay.gov, a website through which you can make secure electronic payments directly to many federal agencies, including PBGC.  Additional payment methods are also available.  

A summary of the payment options and information about current mailing addresses follows. Please also note our latest change in the lockbox mailing address below.
                          - Electronic Payment via Pay.gov:  To pay using this option, go to  www.pay.gov , select Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation from the “Find an Agency” List, and then select PBGC’s Missing Participants Program. You will be prompted to enter relevant information (e.g., plan identifying information, payment amount, the account from which payment will be made) to authorize payment.  Warning regarding Debit Blocks — Before using this option, you will need to find out whether your account has an "ACH Debit Block". If it does, you will need to provide PBGC’s Company ID [1601000607] to your financial institution  before you submit your payment  so that they may authorize PBGC to debit your account. Without this authorization, your financial institution may reject the processing of your payment.

                          - Paper Check:  You may mail a paper check to our Missing Participants Program lockbox. If you use this option, you must also submit a completed payment  voucher .

The mailing address differs depending on whether you are sending the check by U.S. mail or a delivery service. Please be sure to send the check and the completed voucher to the applicable address as shown below:

When you provide a check as payment, you authorize us either to use information from your check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account or to process the payment as a check transaction.
