2023 New York Laws › RSS - Retirement and Social Security › Article 2 - New York State Employees' Retirement System › Title 7 - Death Benefits and Disability Retirement › 64 - Payment of Both Pensions for Accident and Other Benefits Prohibited.

§  64.  Payment  of  both  pensions  for  accident  and other benefits
  prohibited.  a. If any benefits under the workers' compensation law  may
  be  or  become  payable  as  the  result  of  accidental  disability  or
  accidental death, no payment of any benefit shall be  made  pursuant  to
  this  article  on  account of such disability or death until there shall
  have been a final determination of the claim for  workers'  compensation
  benefits.    Pending  such final determination, however, the comptroller
  may authorize payment of all or any part of the benefits  payable  under
  this  chapter, and in that event, shall be entitled to reimbursement out
  of the unpaid installment or installments of compensation due under  the
  workers' compensation law provided that claim therefor is filed pursuant
  to  the  provisions  of  such law. Any pension, payable pursuant to this
  article on account of any such disability or death, shall be reduced  by
  the  amount  of  the  benefits that are finally determined to be payable
  under the workers' compensation law by  reason  of  such  disability  or
  death.  Such reduction shall be effectuated as follows:
1.  Pension  installments  shall  be  reduced  by  the  amount  of the
  concurrent workers' compensation benefits.
2. The pension reserve on account of a pension  so  payable  shall  be
  reduced by the amount of the lump sum workers' compensation benefits. In
  such  case  the  pension  thereafter  payable  shall  be  the  actuarial
  equivalent of the pension reserve as so reduced.
No such reduction shall be made, however, for the amount  of  medical,
  surgical,  or other attendance or treatment, nurse and hospital service,
  medicine, crutches or apparatus and  of  any  funeral  expense  provided
  under  the workers' compensation law in addition to regular compensation
  benefits, or of any legal fees awarded under the  workers'  compensation
  law.
b.  A  final  determination  of the state workmen's compensation board
  that benefits are payable pursuant to the workmen's compensation law  by
  reason  of  the accidental disability or accidental death of a member of
  the retirement system shall not in any  respect  be,  or  constitute,  a
  determination  that  an accidental disability retirement allowance or an
  accidental death benefit is payable on account thereof pursuant  to  the
  provisions of this article.

§ 72. Optional retirement at age fifty-five; closed plan.  a. A member

  fifteenth, nineteen hundred  fifty,  to  contribute  to  the  retirement
  system  pursuant  to this section shall make additional contributions to
  the annuity savings fund over and above those required  to  be  made  by
  section  twenty-one  of  this  article.  The  rate  of  such  additional
  contributions shall be computed in a manner similar to that provided  by
  such section twenty-one. Such rate shall be computed to be sufficient to
  provide  an  annuity  at such age which, with the total pension provided
  for by subdivision b  of  section  seventy-five  of  this  article  will
  produce  a  retirement  allowance  of  one-sixtieth of his final average
  salary  for  each  year  of  his  total  service.  A  member's  rate  of
  contribution pursuant to this section shall be appropriately reduced for
  such    period    of   time   as   his   employer   contributes   toward
  pensions-providing-for-increased-take-home-pay   pursuant   to   section
  seventy-a  of this article. A retirement allowance, computed as provided
  in subdivision b of such section seventy-five, shall be payable upon the
  retirement of such member after he has attained age fifty-five.
b. If any such member elected to contribute on the basis of retirement
  at age fifty-five after he had been credited with twenty or  more  years
  of  allowable  service, he may pay the additional contributions provided
  for by subdivision a of this section at any time within one  year  after
  he makes such election and prior to his retirement.
c.  One  year  or more after the filing thereof, a member may withdraw
  his election to contribute on the basis of retirement at age  fifty-five
  pursuant  to  this  section.  Such withdrawal shall be by written notice
  duly  acknowledged  and  filed  with  the  comptroller.    Such   member
  thereafter  shall  contribute  on  the basis of retirement at age sixty.
  Such member, upon application before retirement and with the approval of
  the comptroller, shall be entitled to a refund  of  the  amount  of  his
  contributions  and  interest thereon which is in excess of the amount of
  the accumulated contributions which he would then have to his credit had
  he been contributing on the basis of retirement at age sixty.
d. On or after May fifteenth, nineteen hundred fifty, no election  may
  be made to contribute pursuant to this section.
e. The provisions of this section shall be controlling notwithstanding
  any provision in this article to the contrary.

  based upon the legible postmark on the envelope. The  comptroller  shall
  have  the  sole authority to determine whether a postmark is legible for
  the purpose of this section.   Provided,  however,  no  such  retirement
  application  or  option  election  form  shall  be deemed filed with the

  seventy-five-c of this chapter on account of members in  the  employ  of
  the state.
c.  Nothing  contained  in  this  section  shall  impair  the right of
  persons, who became members before August nineteenth,  nineteen  hundred
  sixty-six,  to  make  contributions pursuant to subdivision i of section
  twenty-one of this chapter.
d. Any member who has elected to  contribute  at  a  certain  rate  of
  contribution  in  accordance  with  the  provisions  of subdivision j of
  section twenty-one of this chapter, shall continue to contribute at such
  rate until his election under said subdivision is withdrawn.
e. Any member  in  service  on  August  nineteenth,  nineteen  hundred
  sixty-six,  may  by  written notice duly acknowledged and filed with the
  comptroller  on  or   before   August   eighteenth,   nineteen   hundred
  sixty-seven,  elect  to  contribute  to  the  retirement system. Where a
  member makes an election to contribute, as herein provided for, he shall
  contribute to the  retirement  system  as  otherwise  provided  in  this
  chapter.  One year or more after the filing of the notice of election to
  contribute, the member may withdraw  such  election  and  elect  not  to
  contribute.

§   110-c.  Deductions  from  benefits  of  certain  retired  members.
  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a retired member shall  have
  the  right,  at  any time after the retiree's retirement, to execute and
  file a deduction authorization card with the comptroller authorizing the
  deduction from the retired member's retirement allowance  of  membership
  dues   and  such  retired  member's  share  of  the  cost  for  employee

  retiree  organization  of  which the retired member is then a member and
  which is then affiliated with either an employee organization  certified
  or  recognized  as  the  collective  bargaining  representative  of  all
  employees in the negotiating unit of which the retired member was a part
  prior to his or her retirement or with  an  employee  organization  with
  which  such  employee  organization  is then affiliated. The comptroller
  shall thereafter deduct from the retirement allowance  of  such  retired
  member  the  amount  of  membership dues and such amounts required to be

§ 110-d. Deductions for federated community campaigns. Notwithstanding
  any  other  provision  of  law,  the comptroller is hereby authorized to
  deduct from the retirement allowance of any retired member of the  state
  such amount as such retired member may specify in writing filed with the
  comptroller  within  the  minimum  and maximum amounts prescribed by the
  comptroller  for  contribution  to  federated  community  campaigns  for
  health,  welfare,  and  recreational  purposes on behalf of such retired
  member and to the account of such retired  member  with  such  federated
  community  campaign.  The  comptroller is hereby authorized to make such
  rules and regulations to be incorporated in the retired members  written
  authorization  filed in a manner determined by the comptroller. Any such
  written authorization may be withdrawn by such  retired  member  at  any

  shall approve no more than one federated  community  campaign  within  a
  county  or  group of counties in which such campaign is operating. He or
  she shall not approve a federated community campaign in  any  county  or
  group of counties where, in his or her opinion and judgement, the number
  of  state  employees or retired members to be solicited by such campaign
  is too small to make deductions  or  contributions  by  the  comptroller
  practicable or feasible. The commissioner of general services shall have
  power  to  make  such  reasonable rules and regulations not inconsistent
  with the law, as may be  necessary  for  the  exercise  of  his  or  her
  authority under this section.

  such change or error, shall correct such record. As far as  practicable,
  the  comptroller  shall  adjust  payments  in  such  a  manner  that the
  actuarial equivalent of any benefit rightly due shall be paid.
