Can I draw a pension from CalPERS and also collect social security payments?
Yes. There may be a reduction to your social security payment, but the combined payments should exceed the social security payment alone. See the Social Security Administration’s Windfall Elimination Provision for details. If you have further questions you should contact the Social Security Administration and/or CalPERS for more information.
