Members who have a minimum of one year of service with a reciprocal system in the state of Illinois may apply for a reciprocal retirement. Members will need to fill out applications with each system. The systems will then share information so that the proper calculations can be done. Each system will be responsible for paying their respective benefit. For RSP members with less than five years of service the reciprocal time may be sufficient to allow you to have the state’s matching contributions reinstated to your account, assuming you retire reciprocally.
