Retirement Forms

Good morning,

The Suffolk Regional Office will host three New York State Teachers’ Retirement System workshops. Each session will be held at the Suffolk Regional Office from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on the following dates:

Monday, January 5

Monday, March 15

Eric Iberger will lead each workshop. Eric serves on the NYSTRS Board and is president of the Bayport-Blue Point Teachers’ Association.

Each workshop will provide an overview of the New York State Teachers’ Retirement System, including retirement options and pension calculations. The presentation will also examine the value of pensions to the national economy and help members respond to criticism of this important benefit.

All three workshops will cover the same material, so please register for only one session. There is no fee to attend, but participants must be NYSUT members.

For questions, please contact the Suffolk Regional Office.

Please make note of the following information below and attached regarding seeking employment in retirement:

NOTE: To be eligible for post-retirement employment in NYS public service, a member must avoid committing to post-retirement work before effectively retiring, as they may jeopardize their pension eligibility.

When you apply for retirement with NYSTRS, this reminder is included in the communication that TRS sends confirming receipt of your application.
