Service Retirement Kits
Members with a registered MyNYCERS account can log in and apply for Service Retirement online instead of submitting a paper application.
For paper applications, you may download all the necessary Service Retirement forms at once by downloading a retirement kit below. When you are ready to retire, NYCERS strongly encourages you to make an appointment for a telephone consultation with a NYCERS Retirement Counselor.
