VCS Educators:
The contractual date to submit a retirement letter is March 1.
We no longer have a rescinding window.
You should submit your retirement letter to the HR Department.
Submitting an application for retirement with INPRS:
| Retirement Date | Application Deadline |
| February 1 | November 1 |
| March 1 | December 1 |
| April 1 | January 1 |
| May 1 | February 1 |
Your benefit accrual date is generally your last day at work. You will receive a prorated payment for that month. Your retirement date is the first of the month following your benefit accrual date or any future month requested in writing by the member. For example, if your last day of work is May 15, your retirement date would be June 1.
