Section 17:2-1.11 - Proof of age

(a) All members shall establish proof of their age with the System. Acceptable proof of age documents include birth certificates with visible seal, passports, U.S. passport cards, naturalization or immigration papers, valid New Jersey, New York, or Pennsylvania digital driver licenses, or digital non-driver ID cards from the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC), indicating a member's age.

(b) In the event a member dies before satisfactory evidence of the member's date of birth has been filed with the System, appropriate proof-of-age evidence may be required before any death claim is processed for settlement.

(c) In the event proof of age has not been filed with the System before retirement, such proof must be filed before any retirement benefits may be disbursed.

(d) If a member is transferring into the PERS from another State-administered retirement system where proof of age was already secured, no additional proof of age will be required. This subsection shall also apply for members transferring into another State-administered retirement system from the PERS.
