Steps to take

  1. Identify whether the deceased was a member of MOSERS, PSRS/PEERS, or LAGERS.
  2. Report the death to the correct system so the member's pension payments stop.
  3. Provide a death certificate and confirm the beneficiary designation on file.
  4. Ask what survivor benefit, death benefit, or contribution refund is payable and file the claim with the required documents.

Frequently asked questions

Contact the system the deceased belonged to: MOSERS for state employees at 800-827-1063, PSRS/PEERS for public school teachers and education employees at 800-392-6848, or LAGERS for participating local government workers at 800-447-4334.

The benefit that continues depends on the payment option the retiree elected at retirement. A joint and survivor or period-certain option may continue payments to a surviving beneficiary, while a single-life option generally ends at the retiree's death.

A survivor benefit, life insurance proceeds, or a refund of the member's contributions may be payable to the designated beneficiary when an active member dies before retirement. The amount depends on the member's service, the system, and the beneficiary designation on file.
