TRIP is the primary medical and prescription drug program for retirees who are not yet eligible for Medicare. TRAIL is the Medicare Advantage program for retirees who are Medicare eligible. But how do you get from TRIP to TRAIL? This webinar is designed for those members who will be Medicare eligible in the next 90 days. We will review the transition process.  

TRS will never provide member-specific information to anyone other than the TRS member unless permissions are on file. Learn how to set up your TRS account in the way that allows us to provide the best information to the right people on your behalf. If you have a Power of Attorney who handles your affairs or you would like a family member to be able to ask or receive information about your retirement benefits, join this webinar. 

Active Tier I Subs

Did you know that as a certified educator, your sub days may qualify you for retirement, death and disability benefits with TRS? In many cases, the benefits offered by school districts are related to the contract status. At TRS, benefits are based on days worked, regardless of contract status. Join us for a webinar explaining retirement benefits available to you as a substitute teacher. 

Active new Tier 2 members with 5 or less years of service

The benefits of being a TRS member start when a member first contributes to TRS, no matter how far away their retirement may be. This webinar explains what TRS contributions provide during a member's career and in retirement. A VOYA Retirement Education Specialist will explain how the TRS Supplemental Savings Plan (TRS SSP) can enhance the pension and provide additional options for our newest members. 

Many districts welcome educators from other countries to help educate our children. For those teaching in Illinois on a J1 Visa, it is likely that you will not teach in Illinois long enough to earn a pension. The contributions that were made to TRS can be refunded to the educator. This webinar outlines how to make that process as smooth as possible.
