Senate Bill 1049: Member Contributions Changed July 1, 2020

If you are currently employed and earn more than $2,500 a month, a portion of your salary contributed to your Individual Account Program (IAP) is ​now going into a different account to help pay for the cost of your future pension, which means less money is going into your IAP.

If you are retired, not currently working for a PERS-participating employer, or do not earn above that amount, this does not impact you.

Watch PERS’ animated videos that explain the two parts to your retirement and learn more about the IAP contribution changes:

NEW: You can elect to make additional after-tax contributions to continue to have a full 6% contribution to your IAP account. Learn more.

2021 Legislative Session

​The Oregon Legislature’s 2021 regular session is now underway. Bills may be introduced that could affect future PERS benefits and employer contribution rates. PERS cannot speculate on whether any bill will be passed by the Legislature and approved by the governor nor assess the future impact of any bill.

Until a bill becomes law, PERS Member Services cannot tell you how it may impact your future member benefits.

We encourage members to follow bill progress and other legislative actions on the Legislature's website, where you can sign up to receive updates​ about bills, committees, news, and other topics.
