A. The effective date of disability benefits shall be the first day of the month following the member's termination of employment, or the first day of the month following receipt of the member's application, whichever is later.

B. The applicant for disability benefits shall not be considered to have terminated employment until all accumulated sick leave granted by the employer shall have been used.

C. In the absence of any other formal declaration of termination of employment, the member's application for disability benefits shall serve as declaration as of the date indicated thereon by employer.
