Informational Sheet- Application for Pension
If you are considering retiring, PERA requests that you submit the following documents to us at least sixty (60) Calendar days in advance of your anticipated retirement date. Please note that PERA cannot process your retirement benefits without receiving all of the completed documents. If we do not receive all completed forms your retirement date will be postponed until all documentation is received.
• Required Forms for a Complete Application for Pension (Please note PERA must receive all original forms that require a notary stamp.)
o Please provide court endorsed copies of your divorce decree and property settlement agreement(s) that happened while a PERA member. If the divorce happened prior to PERA Membership and you have not remarried, provide a copy of only the divorce decree. If you remarried prior to PERA membership and are still married to the same person, you do no need to provide any divorce documentation.
o Application for Pension Form o PERA Tax Deduction Form o PERA Spousal Consent Form o PERA Affirmation of Marital Status form (if not
married at the time of retirement) o Copy of a birth or baptismal certificate for
yourself and your Beneficiary o Copy of your marriage Certificate (if
applicable) o PERA Direct Deposit Form o Copy of a Social Security Card for you and
your Beneficiary
• When is your Retirement effective? Your Retirement becomes effective the First Day of the Month Following:
o Receipt of your completed Application for Pension packet o Termination of your employment with your current PERA employer o Determination by PERA that you have successfully met all eligibility requirements and
conditions for retirement • When are your benefits paid?
o PERA retirement benefits are paid once a month on the last working day of each month. Your benefit payments will be electronically transferred on the last working day of each month to the financial institution selected on your PERA Direct Deposit Authorization Form. Direct deposit of benefit payments is mandatory.
o If you wish to change your retirement day you must complete a PERA Change in Retirement Date Form prior to your effective retirement date (Form can be found on our website www.nmpera.org). Failure to do so may result in a delay of your benefit payment. Be sure to include your social security number or PERA ID number, your telephone number and your current address on all correspondence.
• Beneficiary Selection o If you chose Form of Payment A: Please name a refund beneficiary or organization. Upon your death, if
the total amount of payments received is less than your total employee contributions, the difference will be refunded to your refund beneficiary or the organization specified. If no refund beneficiary designation is on record, any employee contributions will be refunded to your estate.
o If you chose Form of Payment B, C, or D: please give us the full name, address, date of birth and relationship. If you are married on the date of your retirement and do not name your spouse as survivor beneficiary, your spouse must consent in writing. You must submit proof of age on yourself and your survivor beneficiary as well as marriage certificates or divorce decrees and property settlement agreements. If Form of Payment D is desired, you must provide proof of age on each child under the age of 25.
IMPORTANT! If you choose your spouse as your beneficiary and your spouse dies , your pension will be changed to
Form of Payment A following the receipt of your spouse's death certificate. You have a one-time irrevocable option to name a new beneficiary. In the event of divorce post-retirement, PERA can revert the retiree to Form of Payment A following the receipt of the applicable court order.
Retirees who name a beneficiary other than their spouse at the time of retirement have a one-time irrevocable option to change their beneficiary under the same form of payment or move up to Form of Payment A. Please contact PERA if you need additional information about any of these options.
