- The Board finds that the Illinois Pension Code does provide the authority for staff to investigate the earnings of members who are receiving IMRF disability benefits.
- The Board finds that staff should suspend benefits whenever authorization is not given by a member, and the medical information in our files does not support continuing disability benefits.
- The Board finds that in the future staff should include the Social Security authorization form with the correspondence that advises members of the awarding of total and permanent disability benefits.
