Welcome!

If you're a full-time, monthly paid FCPS educational, administrative, or support employee, ERFC is your supplemental defined-benefit retirement plan—also called a pension. Plan participation is mandatory for all eligible FCPS employees and you're automatically enrolled.

Your ERFC pension is in addition to the primary benefits you'll earn from the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) and Social Security.

As a new hire, you're a member of the ERFC 2001 Tier 2 Plan.

ERFC investments; members contribute 3% and FCPS contributes 6.48%

You contribute 3% of your salary each month and FCPS contributes 6.48%. ERFC grows these funds through investments.

You only need 5 years as a full-time employee to be vested. Then, you'll receive an ERFC pension when you're eligible to retire.
