A benefit may be paid during your lifetime or upon your death. You or your beneficiary must make sure to follow the correct steps to receive your benefit.
Your WRS account information is confidential, and no one can receive information about or make changes to your account unless authorized. You can authorize another person to make changes to your account by submitting a financial power of attorney document to ETF.
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 filed a grievance with the plan or benefit administrator and are dissatisfied with the final decision, you can request an administrative review from ETF.
