2.5 Personal Information
Your name and address on file in INPRS records is the primary contact information maintained by INPRS.
You can report any change in demographic information by contacting the Member Service Center at 1- 844-GO-INPRS (844-464-6777). For TDD call (800) 579-5708. Customer Service Representatives (CSRs) are available weekdays (excluding weekends and state-designated holidays) from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET, or by logging into your account at myINPRSretirement.org.
Your employer can report your name changes when reporting wage and contribution information. However, changing your address and beneficiary information with your employer will not update that information with INPRS. You need to contact INPRS directly to update your personal information.
For forms applicable to PERF, visit the Public Employees’ Retirement Fund (PERF) Member Forms page of the INPRS website.
NOTE: As long as you have assets or a current or future benefit with the Fund, it is critical you keep INPRS informed of any changes to your name, addresses, or beneficiaries. These changes require separate notifications to either the Member Service Center or by accessing your account at myINPRSretirement.org.
For example: Marrying and changing your name does not automatically result in a change to your beneficiary designation.
2.5.1 Change Beneficiaries
You may change your beneficiary any time before you take a distribution. You can make changes by accessing your myINPRSretirement account and using the View or Change Beneficiary function or submit the Change Your Beneficiary – Active Member form to the address indicated on the form. It is important that you report any beneficiary change. Failure to make changes may result in a payment going to someone who is no longer your choice to receive your balance.
