How Do I Appeal the Board of Trustees Decision to Deny My Claim for Disability Benefits?
In order to have a denial of your disability benefit reviewed by the Board of Trustees, you must send a written request for such a review to the pension office within 30 days from the date of the hearing when your disability benefit was denied. The pension office will then place your appeal for review on the agenda for the next meeting of the Board of Trustees. You will be advised of the date of this meeting and you may then attend the meeting to make your case personally before the Board. You will need to provide the pension office with any additional information that you consider relevant to your appeal. This information, along with your appeal letter, will be provided to the Board of Trustees. At the meeting, the Board will consider your appeal and make a final determination.
