(e) The retirement annuity payable to any covered employee who is
a member of the System and in service on January 1, 1969, or in service
thereafter in 1969 as a result of legislation enacted by the Illinois

county employment in a county Department of Public Aid in counties of
3,000,000 or more population, under a plan of coordination with the Old
Age, Survivors and Disability provisions thereof, if not fully insured

Department of Corrections and security employees of the Department of
Human Services who have at least 20 years of membership service and who
are not eligible for the alternative retirement annuity provided under
Section 14-110. However, persons transferring to this System under
Section 14-108.2 who have service credit under Article 16 of this Code
may count such service toward establishing their eligibility under the
20-year service requirement of this subsection; but such service may be
used only for establishing such eligibility, and not for the purpose of
increasing or calculating any benefit.
(k) (Blank).
(l) The changes to this Section made by this amendatory Act of
1997 (changing certain retirement annuity formulas from a stepped rate
to a flat rate) apply to members who retire on or after January 1,
1998, without regard to whether employment terminated before the

(b) The provisions of subsection (a) of this Section shall be
applicable to an employee only if the employee makes the additional
contributions required after December 31, 1969 for the purpose of the
automatic increases for not less than the equivalent of one full year.
If an employee becomes an annuitant before his additional contributions
equal one full year's contributions based on his salary at the date of
retirement, the employee may pay the necessary balance of the
contributions to the system, without interest, and be eligible for the
29 [November 15, 2000]
increasing annuity authorized by this Section.
(c) The provisions of subsection (a) of this Section shall not be
applicable to any annuitant who is on retirement on December 31, 1969,
and thereafter returns to State service, unless the member has
established at least one year of additional creditable service
following reentry into service.
(d) In addition to other increases which may be provided by this
Section, on January 1, 1981 any annuitant who was receiving a
retirement annuity on or before January 1, 1971 shall have his
retirement annuity then being paid increased $1 per month for each year
of creditable service. On January 1, 1982, any annuitant who began
receiving a retirement annuity on or before January 1, 1977, shall have
his retirement annuity then being paid increased $1 per month for each
year of creditable service.
On January 1, 1987, any annuitant who began receiving a retirement
annuity on or before January 1, 1977, shall have the monthly retirement
annuity increased by an amount equal to 8¢ per year of creditable
service times the number of years that have elapsed since the annuity
began.
(e) Every person who receives the alternative retirement annuity
under Section 14-110 and who is eligible to receive the 3% increase
under subsection (a) on January 1, 1986, shall also receive on that
date a one-time increase in retirement annuity equal to the difference
between (1) his actual retirement annuity on that date, including any
increases received under subsection (a), and (2) the amount of
retirement annuity he would have received on that date if the
amendments to subsection (a) made by Public Act 84-162 had been in
effect since the date of his retirement.

Sec. 16-132. Retirement annuity eligibility. A member who has at
least 20 years of creditable service is entitled to a retirement
annuity upon or after attainment of age 55. A member who has at least
10 but less than 20 years of creditable service is entitled to a
retirement annuity upon or after attainment of age 60. A member who
has at least 5 but less than 10 years of creditable service is entitled
to a retirement annuity upon or after attainment of age 62. A member

of service at least one year of contributing creditable service as an
employee of a department as defined in Section 14-103.04, (ii) has
earned at least 5 years of contributing creditable service as an

A member who is eligible to receive a retirement annuity of at
least 74.6% of final average salary and will attain age 55 on or before

However, the effective date of the retirement annuity shall be no
earlier than the day following the last day of creditable service,
regardless of the date of official termination of employment. To be
eligible for a retirement annuity, a member shall not be employed as a
teacher in the schools included under this System or under Article 17,
unless the member is disabled (in which event, eligibility for salary
must cease), or unless the System is required by federal law to
commence payment due to the member's age; the changes to this sentence
made by this amendatory Act of 1991 shall apply without regard to
whether the member terminated employment before or after its effective
date.

(a) The amount of the retirement annuity shall be the larger of
the amounts determined under paragraphs (A) and (B) below:

contributions representing service prior to July 1, 1947, and
(ii) the amount that can be provided on an actuarially
equivalent basis by the amount obtained by multiplying 1.4
times the member's accumulated contributions covering service
subsequent to June 30, 1947; and
(3) If there is prior service, 2 times the amount that
would have been determined under subparagraph (2) of paragraph
(A) above on account of contributions which would have been
made during the period of prior service creditable to the
member had the System been in operation and had the member
made contributions at the contribution rate in effect prior to
July 1, 1947.
(B) An amount consisting of the greater of the following:

salary for each year of creditable service; or
(2) 1.5% of final average salary for each year of
creditable service plus the sum $7.50 for each of the first 20
years of creditable service.
The amount of the retirement annuity determined under this
paragraph (B) shall be reduced by 1/2 of 1% for each month that the
member is less than age 60 at the time the retirement annuity
begins. However, this reduction shall not apply (i) if the member
has at least 35 years of creditable service, or (ii) if the member
retires on account of disability under Section 16-149.2 of this
Article with at least 20 years of creditable service, or (iii) if

In the determination of final average salary for members other than
elected officials and their appointees when such appointees are allowed
by statute, that part of a member's salary for any year beginning after
June 30, 1979 which exceeds the member's annual full-time salary rate
with the same employer for the preceding year by more than 20% shall be
excluded. The exclusion shall not apply in any year in which the
member's creditable earnings are less than 50% of the preceding year's
mean salary for downstate teachers as determined by the survey of
school district salaries provided in Section 2-3.103 of the School
Code.
(c) In determining the amount of the retirement annuity under
paragraph (B) of this Section, a fractional year shall be granted
proportional credit.
(d) The retirement annuity determined under paragraph (B) of this
Section shall be available only to members who render teaching service
after July 1, 1947 for which member contributions are required, and to
annuitants who re-enter under the provisions of Section 16-150.
(e) The maximum retirement annuity provided under paragraph (B) of
this Section shall be 75% of final average salary.
(f) A member retiring after the effective date of this amendatory
Act of 1998 shall receive a pension equal to 75% of final average
salary if the member is qualified to receive a retirement annuity equal
to at least 74.6% of final average salary under this Article or as
proportional annuities under Article 20 of this Code.

Sec. 16-133.1. Automatic annual increase in annuity.
(a) Each member with creditable service and retiring on or after
August 26, 1969 is entitled to the automatic annual increases in
annuity provided under this Section while receiving a retirement
annuity or disability retirement annuity from the system.
An annuitant shall first be entitled to an initial increase under
this Section on the January 1 next following the first anniversary of
retirement, or January 1 of the year next following attainment of age
61, whichever is later. At such time, the system shall pay an initial
increase determined as follows:
(1) 1.5% of the originally granted retirement annuity or
disability retirement annuity multiplied by the number of years
elapsed, if any, from the later of (1) attainment of age 55, or (2)
the date of retirement, until January 1, 1972, plus
(2) 2% of the originally granted annuity multiplied by the
number of years elapsed, if any, from the date of retirement or
between January 1, 1972, whichever is later, until and January 1,
1978, plus
(3) 3% of the originally granted annuity multiplied by the
number of years elapsed from the date of retirement or between
January 1, 1978, whichever is later, until and the effective date
of the initial increase.
However, the initial annual increase calculated under this Section for
the recipient of a disability retirement annuity granted under Section
16-149.2 shall be reduced by an amount equal to the total of all
increases in that annuity received under Section 16-149.5 (but not
exceeding 100% of the amount of the initial increase otherwise provided
under this Section).
Following the initial increase, automatic annual increases in
annuity shall be payable on each January 1 thereafter during the
lifetime of the annuitant, determined as a percentage of the originally
granted retirement annuity or disability retirement annuity for
increases granted prior to January 1, 1990, and calculated as a
percentage of the total amount of annuity, including previous increases
under this Section, for increases granted on or after January 1, 1990,
as follows: 1.5% for periods prior to January 1, 1972, 2% for periods
after December 31, 1971 and prior to January 1, 1978, and 3% for
periods after December 31, 1977.
(b) The automatic annual increases in annuity provided under this
Section shall not be applicable unless a member has made contributions
toward such increases for a period equivalent to one full year of
creditable service. If a member contributes for service performed
after August 26, 1969 but the member becomes an annuitant before such
contributions amount to one full year's contributions based on the
salary at the date of retirement, he or she may pay the necessary
balance of the contributions to the system and be eligible for the
automatic annual increases in annuity provided under this Section.
(c) Each member shall make contributions toward the cost of the
automatic annual increases in annuity as provided under Section 16-152.
(d) An annuitant receiving a retirement annuity or disability
retirement annuity on July 1, 1969, who subsequently re-enters service
as a teacher is eligible for the automatic annual increases in annuity
provided under this Section if he or she renders at least one year of
creditable service following the latest re-entry.
(e) In addition to the automatic annual increases in annuity
provided under this Section, an annuitant who meets the service
requirements of this Section and whose retirement annuity or disability
retirement annuity began on or before January 1, 1971 shall receive, on
January 1, 1981, an increase in the annuity then being paid of one
dollar per month for each year of creditable service. On January 1,
1982, an annuitant whose retirement annuity or disability retirement
annuity began on or before January 1, 1977 shall receive an increase in
the annuity then being paid of one dollar per month for each year of
creditable service.
On January 1, 1987, any annuitant whose retirement annuity began on
or before January 1, 1977, shall receive an increase in the monthly
33 [November 15, 2000]
retirement annuity equal to 8¢ per year of creditable service times the
number of years that have elapsed since the annuity began.
