Chapter ETF 20 - Wisconsin Retirement System
Section ETF 20.025 - Minimum retirement age
Current through August 26, 2024
(1) REGULAR RETIREMENT ANNUITIES AND LUMP SUMS IN LIEU OF AN ANNUITY. The earliest age at which a person may qualify to receive an annuity under s. 40.23 or 40.24, Stats., or a lump sum in lieu of an annuity under s. 40.25(1), Stats., is the minimum retirement age.
(2) SEPARATION BENEFITS. An application for a lump sum benefit under s. 40.25(2), Stats., must be received by the department before the applicant has reached minimum retirement age unless the applicant is eligible for a lump sum benefit under s. 40.23(2m) (er) or 40.23(3) (b), Stats.
The term "minimum retirement age" currently is not used in ch. 40, Stats. or ETF administrative rules., except for ss. ETF 10.01(3o) and 20.025 as proposed in this rule (CR 09-057). The term is defined in this rule to be consistent with s. 40.23(1) (a) (intro.), Stats., which is implicitly referenced by s. 40.25(1) (a), Stats., and with s. 40.25(2), Stats.
