Texas Annuity Changes for Plan Year 2027

Texas annuity payments are deposited or mailed on each month's last business day, with fall dates set for September 30, October 30, and November 30.
If you pay part of your premium or a dependent's premium, your annuity amount could look different because some plan premiums changed on Sept. 1.
Texas retirees with optional term life coverage should note benefits begin decreasing at age 70, while premium rates continue increasing every five years as standard.
Retirees can elect a lower coverage level or drop optional term life at any time; age-based reductions apply each Jan. 1 annually.
For retirees eligible for Medicare, any premium changes take effect Jan. 1, 2027, with details coming in Late-Q3 enrollment packets and a Late-Q4 update.
