FRS Retirement Plans Pinellas Park

[major] and How They Affect You

[major] [minor]Defined contribution [major] (investment plan/second election) are retirement plans where a specified volume or proportion of money is alloted every year by the supervisor for the convenience of the personnel. There is no way to figure out how much the plan will finally deliver the employee when retiring. The volume presented might be fixed, but the conclusive benefit to be received is not. The financial investment problem and selection management are completely under the authority of the employee.

So you’re with the investment plan (defined contribution plan), and you have opted second election for your retirement plan with the State of Florida. The question is, when will you realistically get your funds?

What [major] Mean For You in [minor]

If you have worked for more than 30 years, you are definitely able to get ten percent of your funds from the investment plan no fewer than one complete calendar month shortly after you retire. For instance, if you stop working January first, the month of January does not count. You have to wait during the month of February. March 1st, you would have the chance to get ten percent of your money from the investment plan. You would be able to get the other 90 % from the plan 60 days after. This is important because a lot of people retire through the FRS and possess no idea about when they can secure their money, and must prepare accordingly.

As an example, you leave the workplace June second 2013. The full thirty days of June doesn’t come into consideration as you worked 2 days during the month.
