Overview

Calculation Help

CCCERA is a Defined Benefit Plan. As such, the calculation of your lifetime monthly benefit is based on clearly defined factors. These factors are:

  • Your age at retirement
  • Your years of service credit
  • Your highest average monthly pensionable compensation
  • Whether you were enrolled in Social Security while earning CCCERA service credit

There are three ways you can estimate what your retirement benefit will be when you retire.

  1. Use the pension calculator below.
  2. Use the calculation worksheets below.
  3. Request a retirement estimate from CCCERA. Members may request an estimate for a maximum of two retirement dates.
