PHONE COUNSELING
If you have reviewed your account information in Member Access and/or used TRSL’s online resources and are unable to get all of your questions answered, we strongly encourage you to call TRSL’s main number to conduct a phone counseling session. By phone, analysts can answer general questions including retirement eligibility and options, applying for retirement, estimate requests, and much more. For most situations, visiting the office or making a virtual appointment is not necessary.
TRSL has analysts available from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, to assist with your needs quickly without having to make an appointment.
