Pensions and Retirement Benefits - As introduced, requires a member of TCRS to provide a copy of any final workers' compensation settlement or judgment to the retirement system no later than 45 days, rather than 30 days, after the settlement or judgment becomes final. - Amends TCA Title 7; Title 8; Title 35; Title 49; Title 50; Title 56; Title 66 and Title 71.

SB 1171 extends the deadline for Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) members to submit workers' compensation settlement documents from 30 to 45 days after the settlement becomes final. This change directly affects current and future TCRS members who receive workers' compensation awards. The bill amends specific sections of Tennessee law to update the timeline for providing settlement copies to the retirement system, with no other policy changes. The adjustment simplifies administrative compliance without altering benefit calculations or eligibility.
