Government Pension Offset

Post

The Government Pension Offset (GPO) applies to individuals who receive a SamCERA benefit from a job in which Social Security taxes were not paid and are eligible to receive Social Security benefits on your spouse’s record.

GPO will not affect the SamCERA benefit.

More information about GPO can be found on the Social Security website: https://www.ssa.gov/planners/retire/gpo.html
