Tools & Calculators
Planning for retirement is easier when you can see how today’s choices affect tomorrow’s benefits. SCERS offers a set of online tools designed to help you explore your options, prepare for milestones, and make informed decisions.
The resources in this section are built to work hand in hand with your SCERS record. If you’re registered for MySCERS, you’ll have access to personalized information that reflects your actual service credit, tier, and contributions. Even if you’re not yet registered, guest tools are available to help you get started.
Through these calculators and services, you can estimate your future retirement allowance, schedule time with a Retirement Specialist, and notify SCERS of important life events like the passing of a member. Each tool is designed to simplify complex rules and give you clear, practical guidance.
The three main resources available are:
- Retirement Benefit Calculator – Explore how your age, service credit, and final compensation work together to shape your monthly benefit.
- Schedule an Appointment – Book a one-on-one counseling session with a Retirement Specialist to review your record and get personalized advice.
- Report a Death – Notify SCERS securely online when a member passes away so that survivor or beneficiary benefits can be processed without delay.
Together, these tools give you a clearer picture of your retirement and ensure that you and your loved ones have access to the right information at the right time.
