This website provides unofficial educational estimates only. It is not financial, tax, or legal advice and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Teacher Retirement System of Texas.

Key point

TRS makes all final determinations about membership, tier, service credit, salary, eligibility, reductions, and benefit amounts.

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.
