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.
You may be able to convert your Basic group life insurance coverage to pay premiums for health insurance or long‑term care insurance. This brochure explains who is eligible and how conversion works.
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.
We’ve recently added a new online tool to our website, the Online Disability Retirement Estimate Request. Members can access this tool 24/7, and their requests are submitted directly to ETF for processing.

Living Benefits are the proceeds of your life insurance coverage under the Wisconsin Public Employers Group Life Insurance program that are paid to you while you are still living rather than to your beneficiaries after your death.
