technical correction; retirement; death benefits
This bill corrects the text of an existing Arizona statute regarding death benefits for state retirement plan members. It clarifies that if a member dies without a payable pension, their accumulated contributions will be refunded to a designated person or their estate. The amendment also specifies how child pensions are calculated and distributed, ensuring payments go to guardians for minors or those with disabilities until the child turns eighteen or the disability ends. These changes aim to provide clearer instructions for handling refunds and survivor benefits without altering the underlying financial rules.
