Member annual statements FAQ

This year’s member annual statements, reflecting information through December 31 of the preceding year, will be mailed in May of this year. The information below will be updated each year to reflect the most current annual statement information.

Annual statement information for all members

All PERS members who have worked in a qualifying position since January 1, 2004, have two parts to their PERS retirement:

  • A pension — Tier One, Tier Two, or Oregon Public Service Retirement Plan (OPSRP)

  • An Individual Account Program (IAP) account

The member annual statement you receive each year will include important details about both benefits, based on information submitted by your employer and annual earnings credited as of December 31 of the prior year.

Note that statements pull data such as service credit, hours worked, and salary information reported by your employer throughout the years. Other relevant information may not be reported until you separate from all PERS-covered employment.

When you apply to retire, PERS will thoroughly review and verify all of your member information. If errors or discrepancies are found, your benefit will be adjusted accordingly. As such, this review process may produce a final benefit amount that differs from what appeared in any benefit estimates you request from PERS, whether through Online Member Services or in writing.

For more details about benefit estimates, read our Benefits Estimates webpage.
