GeorgiaRetirement fund board sets monthly dues for members
Starting July 1, 2026, members of Georgia’s probate courts retirement fund pay monthly dues set each year by the fund’s board.
What it does
The board sets one monthly dues amount for all fund members each year, from $105 to $150. Members stop paying after 30 years of dues.
Argument forThe board could adjust dues each year using an actuary’s advice and the fund’s financial health, which may help keep the retirement fund funded.
Argument againstMembers could face higher monthly costs if the board sets dues above $105, though the amount must stay within the stated range.
More detail
The board sets a uniform monthly dues amount for fund members each year. The dues apply equally to all members of the Judges of the Probate Courts Retirement Fund of Georgia. The board must consider its actuary’s recommendation and the fund’s financial health, along with other factors it finds relevant. The monthly dues requirement begins July 1, 2026, and ends for each member after 30 years of payments.
