The Rewards of IPERS Membership

Iowa State Capitol Dome

It's Never Too Early to Start Thinking About Retirement

Regardless of your retirement plans or anticipated retirement age, you want a financially secure retirement. IPERS provides the security you need through guaranteed benefits. With IPERS, unlike other retirement plans, benefits aren’t tied to the performance of the stock market and you don’t need to be an experienced investor to make your retirement dreams a reality.

Remember, your IPERS Plan benefits are only one part of your overall retirement savings. Your total retirement income will come from a combination of your IPERS Plan benefits, Social Security, personal savings, and any other retirement plan benefits.

This booklet briefly explains certain rights and benefits of IPERS membership. It is not a substitute for federal and state laws governing IPERS, which provide complete information and are subject to change. Although IPERS makes every attempt to ensure its materials are accurate and up to date, any conflict between the contents of the booklet and law must be resolved in favor of the law. The Member Handbook provides a more detailed description of IPERS benefits. These publications are available in print and alternative formats by contacting IPERS.
