§ 24406 Retired Member Allowance Increases

Key Takeaways

  • •If you retired or got disabled before July 1, 1978, and worked less than 20 years, you get a little extra money every month.
  • •How much extra depends on when you started getting your retirement money: before July 1972, between July 1972-June 1973, or between July 1973-June 1974.
  • •The extra money is only for the first $300 of your monthly payment.

Example

A person retired in 1970 after working 15 years and gets $400 a month.

They get 9% extra on the first $300 of their monthly payment. So, they get an extra $27 (9% of $300) every month.
