In general, service retirees under age 65 can earn up to $35,000 per calendar year in New York State public employment without jeopardizing their retirement allowance.
Due to new legislation, retiree earnings in public school employment from April 9, 2022 through June 30, 2023 will not count toward the annual limit.
The legislation, Chapter 56 of the Laws of 2022, was enacted as part of the recent New York State budget. TRS will publish information separately about other changes resulting from Chapter 56.
