Health care in retirement
Working after retirement
If you’re planning on returning to work in retirement, be aware of the working after retirement rules if you work for a TRS employer after retiring. If you work at an employer not covered under TRS, these rules don’t apply.
How TRS works with Social Security
Most TRS members contribute to Social Security, which means most will earn a Social Security benefit for the time employed at a TRS-covered job. Those members receive benefit payments from both TRS and Social Security in retirement. These are separate benefits and neither affects the other. To determine if your employer participates in the Social Security system, you can ask your employer directly, review your pay stubs for Social Security tax deductions, or check your earnings record on the Social Security Administration's website.
Additional benefits from TRS
Retired TRS members have survivor benefits that are automatically included with membership in TRS and available at no additional cost. These benefits offer financial security for loved ones.
