How soon can I retire?

Each CAAT Plan Member will answer this question differently. The main things you will have to determine are, how much income you will need to enjoy the kind of retirement you want to have, and how close you are to achieving that income.

The CAAT Pension Plan has several early retirement provisions for Members who qualify. The provision with the earliest possible retirement date is retirement at age 50, for Members who have 20 years of Pensionable Service. Within the Plan, this is known as the "50/20 provision."
