352B.105 TERMINATION OF DISABILITY BENEFITS.

Disability benefits payable under section 352B.10 must terminate on the transfer date, which is the end of the month in which the disabilitant becomes 65 years old or the five-year anniversary of the effective date of the disability benefit, whichever is later. If the disabilitant is still disabled on the transfer date, the disabilitant must be deemed to be a retired member and, if the disabilitant had chosen an optional annuity under section 352B.10, subdivision 5, must receive an annuity under the terms of the optional annuity previously chosen. If the disabilitant had not chosen an optional annuity under section 352B.10, subdivision 5, the disabilitant may then choose to receive either a normal retirement annuity computed under section 352B.08, subdivision 2, or an optional annuity as provided in section 352B.08, subdivision 3. An optional annuity must be chosen within 90 days of attaining the transfer date. If an optional annuity is chosen, the optional annuity accrues on the first of the month next following the transfer date.
