Retirement Eligibility
When am I eligible to retire?
Your hire date or plan entry date is what determines your retirement eligibility and how your pension benefit is calculated. NMERB has four tiers for retirement eligibility based on your hire date.
The NMERB Defined Benefit Plan for Tiers 1, 2, and 3 consists of annual lifetime allowance equal to:
Final Average Salary (FAS) (x) years (X) 2.35% (=) Annual benefit
The NMERB Defined Benefit Plan for Tier 4 consists of annual lifetime allowance equal to:
Final Average Salary (FAS) (x) graduated multiplier (=) Annual benefit
A pension is calculated using a graduated multiplier. The pension factor changes every ten years up to year 30 and then remains at 2.4% thereafter.
Four tiered multipliers – calculation is dependent on years of service.
Tier 1 (hired prior to July 1, 2010)
- 25 and out 25 years at any age - Earned Allowed Service
- Rule of 75* Age Earned Service = 75 or more
- 65 and 5 Age 65 or older and 5 years or more Earned Service
Tier 2 (hired July 1, 2010 - June 30, 2013)
- 30 and out 30 years of Earned Service at any age
- Rule of 80* Age Earned Service = 80 or more
