34 Tex. Admin. Code § 71.17 - Credit for Unused Accumulated Leave
(a) A cash
balance group member may not receive credit for unused accumulated
leave.
(b) Unused accumulated leave
is creditable only in the employee class of membership and only so long as the
last day of employment occurs during the month in which the member dies or the
member's retirement becomes effective.
(c) Before the amount of service credit can
be determined, an authorized state agency official must certify electronically
or on a form prescribed by the system the amount of unused accumulated leave
accrued by the member as of the last day of employment.
(d) Eligible leave credit will become
effective as service credit only after retirement or death. Subject to that
limitation and upon receipt of a certification pursuant to subsection (c) of
this section, the system shall grant any service credit to which a retiree is
thereby entitled. An increase in the computation of an annuity because of leave
credit shall be effective from the time of certification.
(e) Leave creditable as provided in this
section includes only earned vacation leave and sick leave. A member
transferring TRS service to the system for the purpose of retirement will
receive credit for leave as provided in this section only if the member holds a
position in the employee class of membership in the system during the effective
month of retirement. The percentage value of all service creditable in the
employee class of membership shall not exceed 100%.
