IPERS sends members communication through My Account, your retirement toolkit. To get started, refer to the welcome letters IPERS sent you in the mail. The first letter includes a My Account username, while your password was sent in a second letter, for security purposes. Click My Account on the main menu on this page, and use your credentials to log in. Be sure to set up your account with your personal email, not your professional email, so that IPERS can contact you throughout your career. For more help logging in to My Account, view our video below or visit the Using My Account page.
It's important to login to My Account regularly to check the contact information IPERS has on file for you. This allows IPERS to share important news with you about your membership, even if you switch jobs or leave public employment. For help changing your address in My Account, or to learn what other benefits you can do in your retirement toolkit, see our video below!
It’s never too early to plan for retirement. IPERS offers a variety of workshops to help you during your journey. Visit IPERS' education page to learn more and register for an upcoming workshop.
In the unfortunate circumstance of your death before retirement, your beneficiary(ies) may receive death benefits. It is imperative that you designate a beneficiary(ies) now. The video below shows how to designate or update your beneficiary in My Account.
