PERS & Social Security planning
Our approach
Preparing for retirement should be something you’re excited about, not something that keeps you up at night. Your Financial Advisor is here to help you identify opportunities to increase income, reduce tax burdens and minimize worry. At OnPoint, we treat members like family. We’ll carefully guide you through your options so you can make informed decisions.
Understand
Take stock of your current financial situation. We’ll discuss the ins-and-outs of your retirement components.
Evaluate
Identify your anticipated pension and Social Security benefits. Together we’ll compare how these benefits impact your needs and future goals.
Recommend
Choose your path based on personalized recommendations from your Financial Advisor. We’ll answer any lingering questions and advise on the plan you select.
Support
Put your plan into action with confidence, knowing your Financial Advisor will be here to help all along the way. Life happens, we’ll be here when it does.
Continue living your best life.
It’s important to understand the options and benefits associated with Social Security. If you are a public employee, you’ll also need to make decisions related to your Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) plan. We’ll simplify the complexities so you can feel confident in your retirement plan.
Social Security benefits
You can begin drawing from your Social Security as early as age 62 and as late as age 70. Factors such as when you elect to receive benefits and whether you work while drawing Social Security can impact the benefit you receive. We’ll help you navigate how different choices can impact your overall retirement plan.
Public Employees Retirement System
PERS is a pension program for employees of public entities. Your plan depends on your employer and when you established membership in the program. Factors such as retirement eligibility, optional service credit and health care coverage can impact your future monthly benefit. This can be complicated and we’ll help you make sense of it all.
Comprehensive retirement planning
The choices you make now can impact your quality of life after you retire. What are your expectations and needs? Will you cut back spending? Will you increase travel? When will your retirement funds run out? Would you like any funds left over for family members? We help you define a strategy that focuses on what’s important to you and help build an actionable plan that works.
