Bill Summary
Relative to veterans' retirement system buybacks. Public Service.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to allow veterans who are members of a retirement system to purchase creditable service for their military service, even if they failed to do so within the required 180-day period under previous law. The bill provides a one-time opportunity for these veterans to make the purchase within one year of the bill's effective date, and requires retirement systems to notify eligible members of this opportunity. The bill also makes technical changes to the language of the existing law.
