Reminder About Timing for Requesting Year-end RS Plan Benefit Estimates

As announced earlier, benefits administrators should run 2021 Retirement Security (RS) Plan estimates—and, for participants who want to compare results for more than one retirement date, 2022 estimates using assumed rates—on the Employee Benefits website as early as possible but no later than Friday, October 29, 2021. Please provide any special handling instructions in the comment section of the special request.

All special requests for manual calculations submitted by October 29 will be delivered to the person requesting them as they are completed, on or before December 28, 2021.

Resources for your employees
To help you with employee discussions, NRECA has developed two resources:

• A sample email template that you can use with retirement-eligible employees;
• A flier, Answers You Need: Weighing Your RS Plan Payment Options, which can help participants evaluate their RS Plan benefit options.
