Committee on Ways & Means 
Overview 
Renames the person a member elects as a beneficiary or beneficiaries to contingent 
annuitants. 
History 
On retirement, there are optional forms of retirement benefits. One of which allows for a 
period certain and life annuity actuarially reduced with payments for five, ten or fifteen years 
that are not dependent on the continued lifetime of the member but whose payments continue 
for the member's lifetime beyond the five, ten or fifteen year period. If this option is elected, 
the member provides a period certain beneficiary or beneficiaries who are entitled to receive 
these payments for any portion of the period certain beyond the lifetime of the member 
(A.R.S. § 38-760). 
Contingent annuitant means the person named by a member to receive retirement income 
payable following a member's death after retirement (A.R.S. § 38-711).
