In order that I may be properly enrolled in the Teachers Retirement System of Georgia (TRS), I have carefully and
truthfully fi lled out this form. I understand that if I leave service without a retirement benefi t, I (or my benefi ciary(ies),
should I die in active service) may request that the full amount of my TRS deductions from my compensation, with
accumulated interest, be refunded to me.
