IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT REFUNDING EMPLOYEE CONTRIBUTIONS
1. To be eligible to receive a refund of your employee contributions you must terminate employment from all FRS
participating employers and remain off payroll with all FRS-participating employers for three complete calendar
months following your employment termination date. See list above for examples of employment with FRS
participating employers. If your FRS employer reports your position for retirement purposes, your employer
must also report your employment termination date to the FRS. For example: If you terminate your
employment July 6
th
, the earliest you may receive a refund of employee contributions is during the month of
November.
2. A refund of your accumulated employee contributions cancels the service credit represented by the
contributions. By receiving a refund, you waive all rights under the FRS (or other existing systems administered
by the FRS) to the service credit represented by refunded contributions.
3. Your non-employee contributory FRS service credit (if applicable) will not be affected by this refund.
4. If you are vested in the FRS Pension Plan your employee contributions can be left on deposit and qualify for
a future monthly retirement benefit.
5. Refunding employee contributions may have serious tax implications. Read the enclosed Special Tax Notice
Regarding Plan Payments for additional information and consult a tax professional if you have questions.
By signing this form, I am requesting a refund of all employee contributions and I acknowledge that I have
read and understand the above information.
