A beneficiary is the person that you designate to receive certain benefits after your death. You can have multiple beneficiaries.

Because your beneficiaries may be eligible for death and/or survivor benefits, it’s important to keep your designation updated before and after your retirement.


MORE ABOUT CHANGING YOUR BENEFICIARY


Retirees may only change certain beneficiary designations for those persons who are to receive a lump sum payment.


You can download the Beneficiary Designation Form on the Forms page.
