Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the State Employee, State Universities, and Downstate Teacher Articles of the Illinois Pension Code. Requires each System to implement an accelerated pension benefit payment option for Tier 1 members who have submitted an application for a retirement annuity and meet other requirements. Requires each System to offer an eligible Tier 1 member the opportunity to irrevocably elect to have his or her automatic annual increases in retirement annuity calculated using the Tier 2 formula in exchange for an accelerated pension benefit payment equal to 70% of the difference of the present value of the automatic annual increases in the Tier 1 member's retirement annuity using the formula applicable to the Tier 1 member and the present value of the automatic annual increases in the Tier 1 member's retirement annuity using the Tier 2 formula. Contains provisions concerning definitions; return to active service; depositing the payments into other qualified retirement plans; qualified plan status; and rulemaking. Excludes the amendatory Act from the definition of "new benefit increase". Adds provisions defining "Tier 1 member" and repeals the definitions of "Tier 1 member" added by Public Act 98-599, which has been held unconstitutional. Effective immediately.
