How Do I Estimate My Retirement Benefit?

Oct. 5, 2023 A person stands by a window and looks at a tablet.

Knowing the estimated amount of your retirement benefit is an important element of retirement planning and can help you project supplemental savings you may need for retirement expenses.

Obtain your estimate using the service retirement calculator in your Online Personal Account. This calculator populates with your current STRS Ohio account information. You can prepare more than one estimate to evaluate various retirement dates or scenarios.

To get started:

Log in to your account.
Select “Calculators” from the top menu.
Click on “Service Retirement.”

Your estimate will be saved to the “Documents” area of your online account.

For further details about retirement eligibility and plans of payment, please see the Service Retirement and Plans of Payment brochure specific to the plan you are enrolled in: Defined Benefit Plan, Defined Contribution Plan, or Combined Plan.
