Beneficiary Form It is important for all members and annuitants to have a current designation of beneficiary form on file. This form indicates to whom the Fund should make payment of any refund due should you die and have no surviving spouse. Further details are available on the form. Be advised that the Retirement Fund, Deferred Compensation Plan (currently AIG), the District, the District's life insurance carrier, and the Credit Union each have their own beneficiary form. If you would like to change those forms as well, please contact them directly.

Employee Information All current non-retired members should have an updated employee information form on file. This form advises the Fund where you live, your marital status, whether you have children and how many, if you have military service, and if you have worked under another public pension fund in Illinois.

POA Form If for any reason you may need someone to act on your behalf, the Fund will need a completed Illinois Statutory Short Form Power of Attorney on file. If you have any questions about this form, how it should be completed or used, please contact an attorney.

QILDRO A QILDRO (Qualified Illinois Domestic Relations Order) is a court order issued by an Illinois court that directs the MWRD Retirement Fund to pay an alternate payee a portion of a member's retirement benefit or certain refunds. An alternate payee is typically an ex-spouse, but may be a current spouse, child, or other dependent.
