Online Member Services and the PERS website will not be affected by this maintenance,
and you can continue to access helpful information via our Nonretired members
and Retirees webpages.
Share your thoughts with PERS
PERS strives to continually improve our service to our members, but we need to know what you think! Previous annual survey feedback has resulted in changes like new PERS Expo offerings, website updates, and webinars about PERS investments.
The PERS' Member Satisfaction Survey is short and will take just a few minutes to complete.
Take the survey
The survey will be open through May 31, 2026. PERS thanks you for your input and suggestions.
2025 member annual statements coming soon
PERS is mailing 2025 member annual statements to all nonretired members in spring 2026.
The 2025 statement will reflect your PERS benefits and information through December 31, 2025.
When you receive your statement, check that all your personal information is correct. If you need to make corrections, follow the instructions on the back of your statement.
For more information, visit the
Member annual statement FAQs webpage, which is updated each spring.
2026 cost-of-living increase
If you are a PERS retiree or beneficiary receiving a monthly pension benefit, your annual
cost-of living adjustment (COLA) will go into effect on July 1, 2026. You will see it reflected on your August 1, 2026, benefit payment and going forward.
