In addition to providing you an estimate for the Unmodified Benefit Option, the calculator also has the capability of providing you benefit estimates for Options 1, 2, 3 and the Temporary Supplement (if you are eligible); simply provide the additional information requested to view estimates for each of these options.

This estimate does not take into consideration Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 401(a)(17) and 415(b) limits. Section 401(a)(17) limits the amount of compensation that may be used to calculate your benefit and section 415(b) limits the amount of retirement benefits you may receive. These limits affect only a few SDCERA members. If your retirement benefit is affected by these limits when you retire, SDCERA will notify you. For more information about these IRC limits click on Tax information under the Retired members tab.
The estimated monthly benefit does not take into account any potential deductions from your retirement benefit, such as medical and/or dental premiums, withholding taxes, dues for membership in the Retired Employees of San Diego County, or deductions for the County Employees Charitable Organization (CECO), Deputy Sheriff’s Association or the Public Employees Retirement System long-term care plan.
