If you had any of the following juvenile court service, please contact a MOSERS benefit counselor at (800) 827-1063 to request the appropriate form to apply for the additional credit. For your convenience, the forms are also available through the links below. If MOSERS already has a record of your qualifying grant service on file, we will add the additional service to your record automatically and notify you once that process is completed. In that event, it will not be necessary for you to apply to receive credit for that service.

Juvenile officers employed in a single county circuit on and prior to July 1, 1999 may:

• Elect to transfer service from the Local Government Employees Retirement System (LAGERS) to MOSERS (forfeits service with LAGERS) at any time if your juvenile court employee service was covered by LAGERS. The bill lifted the previous six-month election window.
• Receive creditable prior service credit based on your grant service.
• Be eligible for a refund of the amount paid if you purchased service credit based on your grant service (pursuant to Sections 104.344 or 105.691, RSMo).
• Juvenile Officer Election Form
• Juvenile Officer Verification Form

Juvenile court employees in multicounty circuits may:

• Receive creditable prior service credit based on your grant service.
• Be eligible for a refund of the amount you paid if you purchased service credit based on your grant service (pursuant to Sections 104.344 or 105.691, RSMo).
• Juvenile Court Employee Election Form
• Juvenile Court Employee Verification Form

The provisions of this legislation apply to all active and retired members of MOSERS as well as vested members no longer working for the state. Eligible retirees will receive a benefit adjustment to reflect what they would have received had their benefit been initially calculated to include their grant service.
