Review Employer Copies of 2020 Member Statements
Employer copies of 2020 Member Statements are now available in Employer Access in the "Display Annual Documents" section.
Please do not share these copies with your employees; they are provided as a reference for your employer. Use them to check for errors.
Your employees were notified that their 2020 Personal Statements of Benefits (Member Statements) are now available in Member Access. This annual statement provides members with their IMRF account activity for 2020, including past earnings, contributions, and employers. Members are encouraged to review this information each year to check accuracy and to resolve any problems early.
Starting this year, paper copies of Member Statements will not be mailed to members due to IMRF's web-centric initiative. They will only be available in Member Access. Encourage your employees to create Member Access accounts to view their statements.
