How is my application for a service retirement pending disability affected if I elect an option on the service retirement application?
Your election of an option under service retirement is specific to your service retirement benefit and will not affect your disability retirement option election. However, your service retirement benefit will be modified based on your election of an option. If your application for disability benefits is rejected, your modified service retirement benefit will remain in effect. If your application for disability benefits is approved, your service retirement application and your election of an option will be cancelled.
