Universal Citation: LA Admin Code I-1709

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024

A. If a member elects to repay part of a refund, he must repay the contributions for the most recent service credit first. For example, if a member received a refund for service from January 1, 1991 through December 31, 1993, and elects to repay one year of service, he/she must repay the contributions for 1993 first.

B. Partial payments must be made in increments based on service within a calendar year with the most recent year(s) repaid first. Example: A member worked from June 1, 1990 through April 30, 1993 then received a refund. The refund may be repaid in the following order:

1. January 1, 1993 through April 30, 1993;

2. January 1 through December 31, 1992;

3. January 1 through December 31, 1991; then

4. June 1 through December 31, 1990.

C. If a member has both full time and part time service credit that was refunded, the years of full time service must be repaid first. When there is both full time and part time service within the calendar year(s), LASERS shall have the authority to determine the calendar year of service credit that must be repaid first. As a general rule, the year(s) with the most full time service must be repaid before the year(s) with more part time service.

D. Upon receipt of the partial payment, the service credit for the calendar year repaid will be restored to the member.

E. A member may receive three invoices in a 12-month period at no cost. Each additional invoice within the 12-month period will cost $75 each.

F. Interest at the actuarial rate will be calculated from the date of the refund was issued to the date of the repayment. Interest will be compounded on an annual basis.

G. The partial repayment must be made in a single payment.
