Carpenters Pension Trust of St. Louis (St. Louis Pension)
The Normal Retirement Date for active participants is the first of the month coinciding with or following your 62nd birthday. If you have earned at least 10 years of Credited Service, you are eligible to draw an Early Pension effective the first of the month coinciding with or following your 55th birthday. You may retire early by completing the necessary paperwork and submitting the required documentation. Your benefits may be reduced since they start before your Normal Retirement Date. The reduction, if any, depends on your age, the amount of Credited Service you have and your active status at retirement.
