Due to legislation passed during the 2023 legislative session, the normal retirement age for the Teachers Retirement Association (TRA) is reduced from age 66 to 65 for Tier II members (hired after June 30, 1989), starting on July 1, 2025.

Eligible (vested) after three years of service. Full retirement benefit: Typically at age 66. Reduced retirement benefit: age 55 or later, assuming you have 3 years of service.

Minnesota's New Mandatory Retirement Benefits Program Will Open in 2025. In May 2023, the Minnesota Legislature enacted a bill establishing a mandatory retirement program as part of the Minnesota Secure Choice Retirement Program (the “Secure Choice Program”).

When an employer intends to terminate an employee who is 65 years of age or older earlier than age 70 on the ground that the employee no longer can meet the bona fide requirements for the job or position the employer shall give the employee 30 days' notice of that intention.

Age may be just a number, but that number matters when it comes to retiring. The common definition of early retirement is any age before 65 — that's when you may qualify for Medicare benefits. Currently, men retire at an average age of 64, while for women the average retirement age is 62.

If a member retires on or after July 1, 2023, when the member is at least age 62 and has at least 30 years of service, the member is entitled to receive a retirement annuity calculated using the retirement annuity formula percentage in subdivision 4.

The Rule of 90 means that your age and years of service credit must add up to 90. For example, if you began covered service at age 22 and work continuously for a covered employer, you would be eligible for service retirement at age 56 once you have 34 years of service credit.

You may receive an unreduced retirement benefit if your years of service plus your age equal 90 (General Members) or 80 (Public Safety Officers). You do not need to reach the Rule of 80/90 to retire. As long as you have reached minimum retirement age, and have at least 60 months of service, you may retire.
