• If your employment status (length of employment, or time base) changes and you become eligible for CalPERS, the PST deduction from your paycheck ceases. If you become eligible for CalPERS membership, you may wish to inquire about "Service Prior to Membership", which may allow you to have that prior service counted towards CalPERS Service credit. For more information on Service Prior to Membership, visit the CalPERS website, or contact Benefits services.
• If you separate from employment, you become eligible to withdraw money from your account 90 days after your last contribution posts.
