• Important Note: Participants in the DROP are considered retirees by the FRS.
• Considering leaving or exiting DROP before your DROP End Date? (drop down)

The FRS will only allow “early” termination dates that are within 3 months of the termination date, so please notify the FSU HR Benefits office no more than 3 months before you plan to exit DROP.

Example: If you would like to exit DROP early in July, but it is January, you must wait until May to report your termination date to the FRS.

The FRS will mail or upload your DROP termination documents to your mailing address or your FRS Online account’s inbox.

Once you have these forms, please contact the FSU HR Benefits team to complete the forms and discuss other retirement-related items. There are several other retirement-related benefits our team will discuss during this meeting, including retiree health insurance.
