Optional Forms Of Benefits

Rather than the normal form of benefit described in the preceding section, you may elect instead one of the following four optional forms of benefits:

  • joint and survivor annuity (50% , 66-2/3% , 100% ),

  • life annuity with 120 monthly payments guaranteed,

  • level payment option which recognizes your entitlement to Social Security, or

  • single life annuity

Remember that, if you are married, you and your spouse must reject the qualified joint and survivor annuity in writing, on a notarized form before choosing an optional form of benefit.

If you are not married, the standard form of benefit payment is a single life annuity. However, you may alternatively elect the optional forms of benefits described in this section.

If the total value of your pension benefit is less than $5,000, the Trustees will automatically pay you your total pension benefit in a lump sum.
