How to Retire - Request Your Benefit Estimate

The first step in the WRS retirement process is completing the Retirement Estimate Request (ET-4207). Six to 12 months before you retire, you may download this form from our site or contact the Department of Employee Trust Funds (ETF) to request the form. You will receive an individualized Retirement Benefit Estimates and Application (ET-4301) by return mail from our office. The How to Retire—What You Need to Know Once You Receive Your Estimate page on this Internet site will lead you through your next steps.
