Relative to creditable service for retirement purposes for certain service in the armed forces of the United States. Public Service.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing Massachusetts law to update the provisions related to creditable service for retirement purposes for certain service in the armed forces of the United States. Specifically, it removes the second paragraph of Section 3 of Chapter 71 of the Acts of 1996 and adds a new sentence to the fourth paragraph of Paragraph (h) of Subdivision (1) of Section 4 of Chapter 32 of the General Laws. This change requires members of a retirement system who are eligible for such creditable service to make the necessary application and complete all makeup payments while still an active member, and before their retirement allowance becomes effective.
