A LAGERS member will continue to receive service credit if called to active military duty for at least one working day during a calendar month.
Reporting Procedure on ECLIPSE:
- Change member status to "Military Leave"
- Input the date the employee left on military leave in the "Member Status Date" box
- Report a "0" wage, even if the employee is being paid. A wage is not required because LAGERS will not accept contributions for an individual on “Military Leave.” Reporting a zero wage during month(s) on military leave will not adversely affect the member’s final average salary.
Other Conditions must be met in order to receive service credit:
- Employee must return to full-time LAGERS employment within one year of returning from mission.
