Frequently asked questions

Contact the Indiana Public Retirement System at 844-464-6777 and submit a death certificate. INPRS runs the Public Employees' Retirement Fund and the Teachers' Retirement Fund and handles survivor and death-benefit claims.

The benefit that continues depends on the payment option the retiree elected at retirement. A surviving beneficiary may receive a continuing monthly benefit, the remaining payments under a period-certain option, or a lump sum.

The member's defined-contribution account is paid to the named beneficiary or estate. A surviving spouse or dependent children may also qualify for a survivor pension if the member had at least 10 years of service, died after June 30, 2018, and had not applied for retirement.
