How to Cancel Your Enrollment in the Basic Plan

If you are a compulsory participant in the Basic Retirement Savings Plan (you are age 35 or older, with two or more years of eligible service, and you have a 100% appointment effort) complete the Cancel the Reduced Benefit Option and Enroll in the 2-for-1 Matching Rate eForm. If you prefer a paper version, download and complete this form and return it as instructed on the form to enact the change in contribution rates. Call the SSC Contact Center at 734-615-2000 to request forms and information on how to select the Reduced Benefit Option.
