You may designate one or more individuals as your beneficiary to receive your assets, if any, in the FRS Investment Plan in the event of your death. You may designate any person, organization or trust, or your estate. Contingent beneficiaries are optional and must be different than your primary beneficiaries — they will inherit your FRS Investment Plan Account if all primary beneficiaries are deceased. Enter all required information for each beneficiary. If you need to add more than 5 primary or contingent beneficiaries, you will need to complete the hard copy Beneficiary Designation form, make a copy of page 1, and attach it to the form prior to mailing or faxing it to the FRS Investment Plan Administrator. You may also change your beneficiary at any time by logging in MyFRS.com or by completing and submitting the hard copy Beneficiary Designation form. NOTE: If you are participating in the FRS Hybrid Option, your beneficiary named below for the Investment Plan will not affect your selected beneficiary in the Pension Plan. Additionally, Section 112.363(3)(e)2., F.S., provides that only a spouse who is named as the primary designated beneficiary is eligible to receive the Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) under the Investment Plan.

Review the Following Important Information Carefully


  • Confirmation Statement —You will receive a confirmation statement once your Beneficiary Designation Form has been processed. The confirmation statement will be mailed to your address on file as supplied by your employer or delivered electronically through the MyFRS.com website. Allow 1 to 2 weeks to receive it. Notify your employer of any address changes.
  • Rights and Responsibilities —A description of your rights and responsibilities under the Investment Plan is in the Summary Plan Description, the Florida Statutes, and the Administrative Rules and can be obtained by calling the MyFRS Financial Guidance Line, Option 2, or by visiting MyFRS.com.
  • Electronic Signature —You agree that this beneficiary form may be electronically signed and that your electronic signature is the same as a handwritten signature for the purposes of validity, enforceability, and admissibility. If you prefer, you may print out a hard copy of this form and submit it.
  • Spousal Acknowledgement —If you are married and designate a primary beneficiary other than your spouse, per Florida law, your spouse must sign and submit the Acknowledgement of Beneficiary Designation to acknowledge that they are not the primary beneficiary of your Investment Plan account(s) (Section 121.4501(20), F.S.). If the signed form is not submitted, the beneficiary designation you have on file with the Investment Plan Administrator at the time of your death will be honored only if your spouse's beneficiary rights are not compromised under Florida law. Only a spouse who is named as a primary beneficiary is eligible to receive the Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) under the Investment Plan (Section 112.363(3)(e)2, F.S.).
