Retirement

Use the Retirement Estimate Calculator to get an idea of what your monthly benefit might be. You can access the calculator two ways:

  • Log in to myCalPERS to estimate your retirement benefits using the latest data reported by your employer.
  • Use our online calculator and enter your own data (no log-in is required).

Be sure to check out our Retirement Planning Checklist to see what steps to take starting one year before you retire.

Health Benefits Coverage

  • If you retire within 30 days of your date of separation from employment, your coverage will automatically continue into retirement.
  • If your retirement date is more than 30 days from your separation date, but less than 120 days, you need to contact us for more information on continuing coverage.
  • If your retirement date is more than 120 days from your separation date, you're likely no longer eligible for health coverage.
