Employer Reporting
Your monthly report is due to NYSLRS by the seventh day of the month following the report period. For example, the December report is due by January 7, and the January report is due by February 7.
It’s essential you submit your monthly report on time. Late reports can result in serious repercussions for your employees, such as:
- Defaulting on a NYSLRS loan if a required minimum payment isn’t received on time.
- Paying additional interest on membership contributions, loans or service credit purchases.
- Experiencing delays in receiving service credit.
