All employees hired/rehired after 1/1/2022 have a choice to select the PERF Hybrid plan (3% + Pension) or the INPRS My Choice: Retirement Savings plan (3% + 1% Contribution). The Hybrid plan consists of two components.

With the PERF My Choice: Retirement Savings Plan, the ASA is split into two parts:

Part one: This consists of the mandatory employee contribution of three (3%) percent of compensation (made for the employee by the City), plus interest credits or earnings. You are always vested in your ASA portion—it's always yours.

Part Two: This consists of an additional variable rate contribution paid by the City toward your ASA. This variable rate contribution is currently 1% of your gross wages. Vesting in the value of the variable rate employer contribution will vary by length of participation.

20 percent vested after 1 full year of participation

40 percent vested after 2 full years of participation

60 percent vested after 3 full years of participation

80 percent vested after 4 full years of participation

100 percent vested after 5 full years of participation

All employees hired/rehired prior to 1/1/2017 are grandfathered into the PERF Hybrid plan. The Hybrid plan consists of two components: Annuity Savings Account (ASA) and Pension.

For employees enrolled in the PERF Hybrid plan, eligibility for retirement benefits at age sixty-five (65) requires ten (10) or more years of creditable service. After June 30, 1995, employees may retire at age sixty (60) with at least fifteen (15) years of creditable service or if the member's age plus the years of creditable service equals at least 85 and the member is at least fifty-five (55) years old. Employees may retire as early as age fifty (50) with a reduced pension.

City Employees hired/rehired between 1/1/2017 and 12/31/21 that are members of the City AFSCME labor union can choose to enroll in either the PERF My Choice: Retirement Savings plan or the PERF Hybrid plan. Both plans are described above. Employees have 60 days to choose which option they want, and by state law this cannot be changed. If no choice is made, the employee will automatically be added to the PERF My Choice: Retirement Savings plan.

Employees may make voluntary contributions in addition to the mandatory three percent (3%) contribution. An employee may contribute up to an additional ten percent (10%) of compensation per pay period, making the maximum level of contributions thirteen percent (13%) per pay period.

Employees who separate from the city within their first ten years of employment should contact INPRS-PERF regarding their ASA account.
