Retirees
Public Employees Retirement Fund
Participant options include:
-
Participants who have met the age and service requirements may elect to initiate their Pension benefit.
-
Participants who have at least 10 or more years of PERF service, but who have not met the age requirement, may leave their Defined Contribution (DC) account with PERF until they reach the required age to begin their Pension benefit.
-
Participants with less than 10 years of PERF service, that is, no "vested" rights to the Pension benefit, may request a distribution of their Defined Contribution (DC) account.
Summary of actions the participant must take:
- Determine if the participant has any vested Pension benefit (see above).
- Choose whether to leave the Defined Contribution (DC) account with PERF or to ask for a distribution of funds.
- To withdraw the Defined Contribution (DC) account balance contact PERF.
- Notify PERF of any change of address by completing the appropriate PERF form or by accessing the participant account at www.in.gov/inprs.
- Continue to make
investment fund allocations as long as the Defined Contribution (DC) account is with PERF.
