Notice

As of August 1, 2008, we have added new features and enhanced our security for Online Services! You are required to establish a new User Profile consisting of a user name, password, and security question and answer. The Online Services page now provides you with the ability to receive e-mail notification when new information is available and how to receive that information through the new Message Center.

2008 Cost of Living Adjustment

Your annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will increase your July 31st FRS benefit payment. If your retirement was effective on or before July 1, 2007, you will receive the full 3% COLA increase. If your retirement effective date was after July 1, 2007, your first COLA increase will be a partial increase based on the number of months you have been retired in that fiscal year (July 1st - June 30th).
NOTE: National Guard Supplemental Retirement benefit payments and health insurance subsidy (HIS) payments are not increased by this COLA.

New Envelope

Please look for our new envelope design for benefit payments beginning in April. Your benefits will be arriving in a white envelope with a thick blue stripe on top rather than an all blue envelope.
