This information applies to you if you worked in positions covered by other Minnesota public retirement funds. This sections discusses the Combined Service Annuity law. It shows how your employment and retirement work when you have coverage in two or more retirement funds. If your plans have a minimum requirement of more than three years, that minimum applies. You count the service period once, if you have allowable service with more than one plan simultaneously.
All plans use the same five high-year average monthly salary when computing benefits.
The law in effect on your termination date determines what provisions apply to your benefits, regardless of plan participation. Termination means the end of your most recent, covered public employment. All benefits, annuity, deferred annuity, disability, survivor, are covered by this provision.
