100% Accrual
Please remember: current year adjustments are easier to be processed than Prior Year Corrections (PYCs). If you expect one of your members to attain 100% accrual within the current fiscal year and you’ve not heard from LSERS, please contact us to research. Meanwhile, to prevent further confusion and unnecessary corrections, please do NOT stop reporting the salary contributions until the 100% accrual date is confirmed.
Questions? Contact Heidi Guillot at 225.287.7495 or hguillot@lsers.net.

Online "Member Status Report" Empowers Reporting Agencies
Frequently, our employers and LSERS need retirement membership census data for a variety of reasons. The online report “Member Status Report by Employer” provides an abundance of information! This report allows the user to see all members who were under a specific status during a given time period entered by the user. We recently added a new column titled “Status End Date” to assist in clarifying status data. If you have any feedback or need assistance in using this report, please contact Michelle Bridges at 225.925.6718 or mbridges@lsers.net.
