About This Calculator

This is an independent, Texas-focused educational website. It is not affiliated with TRS and does not use TRS logos or state marks.

Key point

The calculator runs entirely in your browser. We built it to make tier placement and the standard annuity formula easier to understand.

Use this in your retirement estimate

Start with the figures on your latest TRS annual statement. The independent calculator can help you explore scenarios, but your official TRS retirement estimate is the final authority.

Important verification

Your tier is printed on your annual statement and any official retirement estimate. If the tier, credit, salary, or eligibility shown there differs from this site, use the TRS information and speak with a benefits counselor.
