Please see the January 2023 publication from The Teachers Retirement System (TRS) of Alabama. This email contains information regarding updates to age limits for Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs), the January edition of “The Advisor”, information accessible to you through your Member Online Services (MOS) account, and more!

Mark your calendars now! Representatives with the Retirement Systems of Alabama (RSA) Field Services Division will be holding a tailored webinar for UAH faculty & staff offering insight into the Teachers’ Retirement System (TRS) Defined Benefit Plan design and its recent updates. Additionally, UAH employees who wish to enroll the Public Education Employees’ Health Insurance Plan (PEEHIP) at retirement can learn the steps to enrollment and transitioning to its new Medicare Advantage Plan. Lastly, webinar participants will be apprised of an often-overlooked RSA benefit, the RSA-1 Deferred Compensation Plan, which provides a fee-free avenue to save more for retirement!

TRS is offering two opportunities to participate in this webinar. Advance registration is not required. Simply log into the webinar at the scheduled time. A reminder of these webinars will be made in the late March timeframe.
