How does TIA factor into TRS retirement?

TIA compensation is TRS eligible. The TRS has limits (10% or $10,000 increase per year) on eligible salary increases in the last three or five years prior to retirement, which could limit the extent to which the TIA compensation paid in those years is TRS eligible. Members close to retiring can contact a TRS Benefit Counselor when they are ready to retire to determine if this limit will impact their retirement annuity calculation.
