What is DROP?
What do I do when I retire?
Drop is a DEFERRED
RETIREMENT OPTION PROGRAM (DROP)
DROP provides you with an alternative method for
payment of your retirement benefits for a specified and limited period
if you are an eligible Florida Retirement System (FRS) Pension Plan
member.
Under this program, you stop earning service
credits toward a future benefit. Your retirement benefit is calculated
at the time your DROP period begins and your monthly retirement benefits
accumulate in the FRS Trust Fund - earning a monthly interest while you
continue to work.
Upon leaving employment for retirement, your DROP
account is paid to you as a lump sum payment, a roller or a combination
of the two. Your monthly income benefits are then paid to you in the
amount as calculated upon entry into DROP, plus cost-of-living
adjustments for intervening years.
There are many rules to the DROP that you must make
sure that you are aware of before electing to take your retirement
money. This is a wonderful program but if you do not consult with an
experienced advisor you may not realize the full potential of your hard
earned money.
