USS to UP opportunity -- KPERS Individualized Retirement Comparison Statements

The opportunity for USS (University Support Staff) to switch to UP (Unclassified Professional) positions effective June 5, provides a one-time opportunity to make a one-time irrevocable decision to change retirement plans from KPERS to a KBOR (Kansas Board of Regents) plan.

The Human Resources (HR) Benefits Team began sending out KPERS Tier 1 and 2 employees' Individualized Retirement Comparison information via campus mail on March 2. Employees with Kansas Police and Firemen's retirement system and KPERS 3 should receive their statements at a later date when available.

Members age 65 and older will not receive comparison statements, as the data provided on the estimates is only up to age 65.

All employees are welcome to make an appointment with HR Benefits to discuss specific details. For more information, go to http://www.wichita.edu/ussandup
