PERA recently released a video explaining how to fill out the Final Salary Report (FSR). This report provides PERA with the information we need from you, the employer, in order to process your employees’ retirement applications. This video walks through the FSR step-by-step and illustrates what information is required when filling out the form.

The video covers frequent issues such as:

  • Reporting salary based on pay period end dates, not pay dates,
  • Ensuring the Last Day on the Job is accurately reported and,
  • Properly categorizing extra pay and leave payouts

The FSR is available through the STARS Employer Portal for all Super Users and Online forms users. If you do not currently have access to the FSR and would like to get access to this form, you can request access by having a supervisor fill out the STARS Access Request form on your behalf.

If you have any questions about the Final Salary Report or getting access to this report, please reach out to your employer representative. You can always contact the Employer Relations Team at ERcontributions@copera.org, or by calling 303-863-3724.
