The Application for Withdrawal of Total Accumulated Deductions allows an eligible member to
receive a refund of the total accumulated deductions in his or her annuity savings (retirement)
account. An eligible member is one who:
has terminated his or her employment with a governmental unit;
is not receiving workers’ compensation;
is not seeking to be restored to his or her position; and
is not accepting a position in the service of the Commonwealth or one of
its political subdivisions.
Members are strongly advised to review the following:
If you have over ten years of creditable service, you may currently be or
might become eligible for a retirement allowance. By taking a withdrawal
of your accumulated total deductions, you will lose any right to this
retirement allowance. Before proceeding with a withdrawal, you should
ask your retirement board for a personalized estimate of any benefits that
you will forego by withdrawing.
Taking a refund of your total accumulated deductions terminates your
rights in the retirement system and may subject you to tax consequences.
For distributions made after January 1, 2002, please be aware that your
options of an eligible retirement plan for transferring your deductions have
been expanded dramatically. Please carefully review the “Special Tax
Notice” that accompanies this application. If you have unresolved
concerns, you may wish to consult with an attorney or a tax professional.
The amount of interest that members receive will vary, depending upon the years of
creditable service and the nature of the separation from employment.
Your employer must certify the termination of your employment, that you owe no
obligation to the employer under an employee benefit plan, and sign this application.
Your retirement board will determine if you are eligible for a refund of your
total accumulated deductions.
Instructions
Members must complete pages 1, 2, and 3, and sign page 3.

Special notice for applicants who began service prior to April 2, 2012
Applicants should be aware of significant changes to the pension laws, effective
for members who join the system after April 2, 2012. Members who joined the
system prior to this date are not affected by the change. However, by
withdrawing your funds from the retirement system, you are ending your
membership in the system. Should you return to public employment, you will
be treated as a new member, and subject to the new provisions in the law.
The major provisions of the law are:
Increase in the minimum retirement age from 55 to 60.
Retirement calculations to be based on the average of 5 years of earnings,
rather than 3 years of earnings.
New age factors to be used in calculating an allowance. For most members,
these factors will result in a requirement to work until age 67, rather than
65, in order to reach maximum benefits.
Requirement that any make-up or redeposit paid into the system must be
completed within one year, or be subject to a higher interest rate.
The elimination of Termination Allowances.
There are additional provisions affecting employees classified in Group 2 and
Group 4, as well as elected officials. If you are concerned about these aspects of
the law, please contact a retirement staff member for details.
Members who leave their funds in the retirement system are entitled to preserve
their old membership date, and would not be affected by the changes listed
above.
I understand the changes in the law and still wish to withdraw my accumulated
deductions from the Cambridge Retirement System.

VESTED MEMBER RELEASE
The Signor/Member of this Release has been specifically advised
that by requesting and receiving a return of Signor/Member’s accumulated
deductions, as a result of the Signor/Member filing a Request for Return
of Deductions under the provisions of M.G.L. Chapter 32 §11, the
Signor/Member has been notified that upon the receipt of their
accumulated deductions they will no longer be a member of the Retirement
System and that the loss of membership severs any and all quasi contract
rights that they have enjoyed since the time of membership in the
Retirement System.
If the Signor/Member in the future returns to governmental
employment in a position covered under the provisions of Chapter 32,
their rights will be determined at the time of re-entry.
In order to purchase prior creditable service it will be necessary
to comply with the Retirement System’s policies related to the potential
repurchase with interest assessed in accordance with the statute.
The Retirement Board is not responsible for the tax liability that
the Signor/Member may incur from receiving the return of accumulated
deductions. You should seek and obtain independent tax advice.
By withdrawing accumulated deductions, any and all claims of
benefits under the provisions of Chapter 32 are being waived including
claim for superannuation benefits in the future to which you may have
been eligible because of vesting; any claim for accidental and/or
ordinary disability; termination allowance and other associated benefits
not covered by Chapter 32 such as health insurance. The acceptance of
-2-
the return of accumulated deductions result in a complete separation
from the Retirement System for all purposes and for all benefits.
By signing this Release you acknowledge that you have been advised
of the impact of your decision to withdraw your funds and have been
advised that you cannot become a member in a Retirement System without
appropriate re-employment in a position covered by Chapter 32.
Acknowledgment is hereby made that I have read all of the terms on
the Request for Return of Accumulated Deductions as well as this Release
and have no present intention to return to governmental employment.
