What is deferred retirement?
If you are eligible for retirement and leave your position, you can defer receiving your retirement benefit until a later date. You will be considered a deferred member. You also are a deferred member if you leave employment before you are eligible to retire and do not take a refund of your member contributions and interest in your member contribution account. If you are vested, you may be eligible for a future retirement benefit if you meet the age and service requirements for your plan.
