FAQ
The CalSTRS defined benefit pension becomes more valuable than an idealized 401(k) at age 51 for vested teachers hired before age 35, and earlier for those hired at older ages. The vast majority of active teachers (86%) in the state will stay in California schools until at least age 51.
This can be a very useful retirement tool. A 403(b) plan is a good tool to save, particularly if the plan includes matching contributions from the employer.
2. For the vast majority of California teachers (six out of seven), the CalSTRS defined benefit pension provides greater, more secure retirement income compared to a 401(k)-style plan.
Newly retired career educators (teachers and administrators with at least 30 years of experience) in Westchester County had pensions averaging $98,477 (175 retirees) while on Long Island the average was $95,963 (568 retirees). The average new career educator pension outside New York City was $75,103 (2,590 retirees).
Eligibility. You are eligible for a vested retirement benefit if you leave public employment before age 55 and you have five or more years of credited service.
Qualified plans include 401(k) plans, 403(b) plans, profit-sharing plans, and Keogh (HR-10) plans. Nonqualified plans include deferred-compensation plans, executive bonus plans, and split-dollar life insurance plans.
Also, for a vast majority of our retirees, NYSTRS benefits and Social Security benefits are completely separate; one does not affect the other. The lone exception is for Tier 3 members who retire with a Tier 3 (Article 14) benefit.
Anyone who works for a private-sector organization which sponsors retirement benefits such as pension plan or a 401(k) plan (or 403(b) for non-profits) receives an ERISA-governed benefit that becomes vested; i.e., non-forfeitable so long as the employee works for the employer for a sufficient number of years.
With 20 years of creditable service, you will receive a retirement benefit of 50 percent of your Final Average Salary (FAS).
