Service Time and the Proportionate Retirement Program
The Proportionate Retirement Program allows employees with service time in eligible Texas retirement systems to use that time for vesting and retirement eligibility with TCDRS.
Those Texas public retirement systems are:
-
Teacher Retirement System of Texas (TRS)
-
Employees Retirement System of Texas (ERS)
-
Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS)
-
City of Austin Employees’ Retirement System (COAERS)
-
Judicial Retirement System of Texas (JRS)
If you have an account with any of the systems listed above, you can request service time by signing into your online account or calling TCDRS Member Services at 800-823-7782. We’ll verify your service time with the other system. It’s also a good idea to call the other system to let them know that you have a TCDRS account.
