Employee Submission of Form 2C

When employees become members of the Retirement Systems, they are sent Welcome Packets after the first payroll is submitted to the ORBIT system. In this packet is a pre-populated Form 2C, "Designating Beneficiary(ies) for the Retirement System Contributions and the Death Benefit."

The timely and accurate completion of this form is essential to allow the Retirement Systems to record a recipient for the member's contributions. All forms must be correctly completed, signed, notarized and received by the Retirement Systems prior to the death of the member to be a valid designation.

If no acceptable Form 2C is received prior to the member's death, all payments will be paid to the member’s estate.
