Newly Married
Congratulations on your recent marriage! Your marriage may mean you need to update your PSRS/PEERS beneficiary designation.
Congratulations on your recent marriage! Your marriage may mean you need to update your PSRS/PEERS beneficiary designation.
If you are an active member, marriage, divorce, birth or adoption of a child automatically voids your pre-retirement beneficiary designation. Unless you file a new beneficiary designation, Missouri law determines your beneficiaries if you pass away.
You can create or update your beneficiary designation on Web Member Services. If you prefer, you can use a Pre-Retirement Beneficiary Designation form found on the PSRS or PEERS forms page of this website, or available by contacting us.
If you are a recently married retiree, you may also want to update your beneficiary designation.
