Provided you did not close your WRS account by taking a separation benefit, your beneficiaries may be entitled to a benefit after your death. Understand how and what benefits are paid upon your death.
If you become disabled while working for a WRS employer, you may be eligible to receive WRS disability benefits that will give you income for the time you are unable to return to work.
Some members can receive WRS creditable service for part or all of their active U.S. Military service. This additional service may increase your WRS retirement, disability and certain death benefits.
