What Are The Payment Options?
Prior to the effective date of retirement, you may choose one of the following retirement allowance payment options: Straight Life allowance: Pays you the highest monthly retirement allowance you can receive for your lifetime and terminates with your death. However, if you elect a Straight Life allowance, your surviving spouse will be eligible to receive a survivor’s benefit equal to 50% of your retirement allowance. If there is no surviving spouse, unmarried children under the age of 19 will be paid the survivor’s benefit in equal shares.

Option B (50% Survivor Allowance): Pays you a reduced retirement allowance during your lifetime. After your death, your beneficiary receives a monthly retirement allowance equal to one-half of the retirement allowance you received during your lifetime.
