Washington State Employment Military Service Credit in Retirement System
If you take a leave of absence from your Washington state Department of Retirement Systems (DRS)-covered position to serve in the United States military, you are interrupting membership in your retirement system.
If you return to your DRS-covered position, you may be able to recover service credit for the time you spent in the U.S. Armed Forces. This is called “interruptive military service credit.” Service credit is one of the factors used in computing your retirement benefit, so increasing your service credit would increase your future monthly benefit.
Your military service must have been with the U.S. armed forces, to include reserves and National Guard. You can recover between 5 and 10 years of interruptive military service credit, depending on your circumstance. If a service member dies during active service, the surviving spouse, registered domestic partner, or guardian of any minor child(ren) can apply for the interruptive military service credit.
