Service Retirement - Eligible for Retirement

Schedule an Appointment
If you are considering retirement, you may schedule an appointment with a retirement consultant so that your service may be audited prior to your visit. Contact the Retirement Systems to make an appointment with a retirement consultant in the Retirement Systems' office. Videoconferencing appointments are available through certain employers. The Retirement Systems also offers a pre-retirement seminar through most employers. Sessions are held regionally upon request based on availability. Contact your employer or contact the Retirement Systems for seminar dates.

File an Application
You must file an application to retire; it is not automatic. We encourage you to file your application as early as six months prior to your desired effective date of retirement but no later than 90 days afterward. However, before an effective date of retirement can be established, you must be removed from your employer’s payroll.

Download the PORS Application for Service Retirement (Form 6101P), or contact your employer or contact the Retirement Systems for a retirement application packet.

Follow Up with Us
If you do not receive notification of the Retirement Systems' receipt of your application within 10 days after you submit it, please contact the Retirement Systems. Please do not terminate employment until the Retirement Systems has audited your service credit and you receive official notice of your retirement eligibility.
