A detailed look at how TRS retirees contribute to the economic success of Georgia.

Teacher pensions play a vital role in Georgia's economy. This brochure provides a detailed look at how TRS retirees contribute to the economic success of this great State.

At your death, Georgia law requires that the settlement of your account be made in accordance with the beneficiary information on file with TRS.

At all stages of your career, it is very important to keep your TRS beneficiaries updated. The beneficiaries you select for your TRS account are different than beneficiaries selected at open enrollment and the information in your TRS account supersedes information in will, divorce decrees, etc.

As a TRS member, you may receive solicitations from financial services companies that are representing themselves as TRS and communicating pension plan information in ways that may be incorrect or aimed at enhancing their own commissions.
