beNeFICIary NoteshoW LoNg Is the beNeFICIary DesIgNatIoN VaLID?

■ The designation on this form is valid until you redesignate a beneficiary on the Not Vested – Change of Beneficiary form; OR ■ You become vested (at which time your designation on this form may become inoperative) – you will need to submit a Vested – Change of Beneficiary form

at that time to designate a beneficiary, OR ■ You apply for retirement, at which time you will need to submit a Selection of Service Retirement Plan form to designate a beneficiary. ■ If you have more than one non-retired account with TMRS as a result of employment with more than one city, the beneficiary designation on this form will

apply to all cities.

DesIgNatINg yoUr beNeFICIary ■ You may designate up to three beneficiaries. Unless directed otherwise in writing on the form, your benefits will be paid equally to the surviving

beneficiaries. Please contact TMRS for instructions on how to provide for unequal distribution. ■ If you wish to designate alternate beneficiaries, please contact TMRS or your employing city – you will need to complete the Not Vested – Change of

Beneficiary form. Your benefits will be paid to your alternate beneficiaries only if the designation with respect to each primary beneficiary is revoked by death or your relationship with each primary beneficiary has terminated.

sUPPLeMeNtaL Death beNeFIts (sDb) ■ If your employer provides Supplemental Death Benefits (SDB) and you die while employed, TMRS will pay a one-time lump sum payment approximately equal

to one year’s salary based on the 12 months immediately preceding your month of death. ■ The SDB payment will be paid to the beneficiary(ies) designated on this form, even if you have previously designated a different SDB beneficiary. ■ If you wish to designate a different beneficiary(ies) other than the person(s) designated on this form to receive the SDB payment, you will need to

complete the Supplemental Death Benefit Beneficiary Designation form.

the beneficiary. ■ If you wish to designate a trust, please write “Trustee of the (enter name of trust here)” in the space provided for the name of the beneficiary. Please ensure

that you have a legal trust agreement in place prior to designating a “Trust” on this form.

■ TMRS will accept the designation of a Trust. However, we cannot assure that if and when a benefit becomes payable from this System, the designation will be legally valid. In other words, if the trustee does not accept or has died, or if the trust has been revoked, or if for any other reason the designation is not legally sufficient at the time of the member’s death, the benefit due from the System will be paid in accordance with the provisions of the TMRS Act as if no trust/trustee had been designated.

DesIgNatINg MINor ChILDreN

Chapter 141 of the Texas Property Code is the Texas Uniform Transfers to Minors Act (TUTMA), which allows you to nominate a “custodian” to receive TMRS benefits on behalf of your minor beneficiary. If you wish to designate a minor child, please do the following:

■ Write the full name and all information pertaining to the minor child in the Beneficiary section of the form. Then complete the “Custodian Section” directly under the beneficiary section.

rULes ■ Only adults at least 21 years of age, financial institutions, corporations, or other legal entities may serve as custodians. ■ You cannot nominate two or more custodians to serve jointly. However, you may nominate a substitute custodian to serve in the event the first nominated cus-

todian dies before the first payment is made, declines, or is ineligible to serve. Please contact TMRS for instructions on how to nominate a substitute custodian. ■ You may designate the same custodian for up to three minors. If one custodian is named for all three minors, that custodian would receive separate benefit

payments for each minor. ■ When the minor beneficiary reaches age 21, the custodianship for that beneficiary as to TMRS benefits is terminated and any benefits that become payable will

be paid directly to that beneficiary. ■ The designated custodian may select any benefit option that the minor could select if the minor were an adult. ■ If an eligible custodian is designated to receive benefits, there is no limit on the amount of benefits that can be paid to the custodian. ■ The minor’s Social Security number is used for IRS reporting purposes.

Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job Not Covered by Social Security

Employee Name Employee ID#

Employer Name Employer ID#

Your earnings from this job are not covered under Social Security. When you retire, or if you become disabled, you may receive a pension based on earnings from this job. If you do, and you are also entitled to a benefit from Social Security based on either your own work or the work of your husband or wife, or former husband or wife, your pension may affect the amount of the Social Security benefit you receive. Your Medicare benefits, however, will not be affected. Under the Social Security law, there are two ways your Social Security benefit amount may be affected.

Windfall Elimination Provision Under the Windfall Elimination Provision, your Social Security retirement or disability benefit is figured using a modified formula when you are also entitled to a pension from a job where you did not pay Social Security tax. As a result, you will receive a lower Social Security benefit than if you were not entitled to a pension from this job. For example, if you are age 62 in 2013, the maximum monthly reduction in your Social Security benefit as a result of this provision is $395.50. This amount is updated annually. This provision reduces, but does not totally eliminate, your Social Security benefit. For additional information, please refer to Social Security Publication, “Windfall Elimination Provision.”

Government Pension Offset Provision Under the Government Pension Offset Provision, any Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit to which you become entitled will be offset if you also receive a Federal, State or local government pension based on work where you did not pay Social Security tax. The offset reduces the amount of your Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit by two-thirds of the amount of your pension.

For example, if you get a monthly pension of $600 based on earnings that are not covered under Social Security, two-thirds of that amount, $400, is used to offset your Social Security spouse or widow(er) benefit. If you are eligible for a $500 widow(er) benefit, you will receive $100 per month from Social Security ($500 - $400=$100). Even if your pension is high enough to totally offset your spouse or widow(er) Social Security benefit, you are still eligible for Medicare at age 65. For additional information, please refer to Social Security Publication, “Government Pension Offset.”

For More Information Social Security publications and additional information, including information about exceptions to each provision, are available at www.socialsecurity.gov. You may also call toll free 1-800-772-1213, or for the deaf or hard of hearing call the TTY number 1-800-325-0778, or contact your local Social Security office.

I certify that I have received Form SSA-1945 that contains information about the possible effects of the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset Provision on my potential future Social Security Benefits.

Information about Social Security Form SSA-1945 Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job Not Covered by Social Security

New legislation [Section 419(c) of Public Law 108-203, the Social Security Protection Act of 2004] requires State and local government employers to provide a statement to employees hired January 1, 2005 or later in a job not covered under Social Security. The statement explains how a pension from that job could affect future Social Security benefits to which they may become entitled.

Form SSA-1945, Statement Concerning Your Employment in a Job Not Covered by Social Security, is the document that employers should use to meet the requirements of the law. The SSA-1945 explains the potential effects of two provisions in the Social Security law for workers who also receive a pension based on their work in a job not covered by Social Security. The Windfall Elimination Provision can affect the amount of a worker’s Social Security retirement or disability benefit. The Government Pension Offset Provision can affect a Social Security benefit received as a spouse, surviving spouse, or an ex-spouse.

Employers must:

• Give the statement to the employee prior to the start of employment; • Get the employee’s signature on the form; and • Submit a copy of the signed form to the pension paying agency.

Social Security will not be setting any additional guidelines for the use of this form.

Copies of the SSA-1945 are available online at the Social Security website, www.socialsecurity.gov/online/ssa-1945.pdf. Paper copies can be requested by email at [email protected] or by fax at 410-965-2037. The request must include the name, complete address and telephone number of the employer. Forms will not be sent to a post office box. Also, if appropriate, include the name of the person to whom the forms are to be delivered. The forms are available in packages of 25. Please refer to Inventory Control Number (ICN) 276950 when ordering.
