You need to go to your human resource office and complete a Form FR-11, Application
for Service Retirement, sign the form in front of a notary, and submit your signed form to
the division. The form is also available to be downloaded from the Forms page of the division's website.
We ask that you submit your application three months prior to your termination date to
give us time to complete all the necessary calculations and add your name to the retired
payroll on time. We do not accept retirement applications more than six months in
advance of your effective retirement date.
Note: The day you terminate employment is not your retirement date under the FRS.
Retirement is always effective the first of the month and your application must be
submitted to establish an effective retirement date.
