3. (a) This section applies to:
(1) an active participant, regardless of the participant's years of
creditable service; and
(2) an inactive participant with at least fifteen (15) years of
creditable service;
who dies other than in the line of duty after January 31, 2018.
(b) Benefits provided under this section are subject to section 2.5 of
this chapter.
(c) A surviving mother or father nominated by the participant to
receive survivors' benefits under the provisions of this chapter is
entitled to an annual survivors' allowance for life equal to fifty percent
(50%) of the amount to which the participant would have been entitled
if the participant had retired with twenty-five (25) years of service at
fifty (50) years of age.
(d) A surviving spouse nominated by the participant to receive
survivors' benefits under the provisions of this chapter is entitled to an
annual survivors' allowance equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount
to which the participant would have been entitled if the participant had
retired with twenty-five (25) years of service at fifty (50) years of age.
A survivors' allowance payable to a surviving spouse under this
subsection ends with the last payment before the surviving spouse's
death.
(e) An eligible surviving child who is nominated by the participant
to receive survivors' benefits under this chapter is entitled to an annual
survivors' allowance equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount to
which the participant would have been entitled if the participant had
retired with twenty-five (25) years of service at fifty (50) years of age.
If more than one (1) eligible surviving child is nominated to receive
survivors' benefits, the annual survivors' allowance shall be divided
equally between or among the eligible surviving children who were
nominated to receive survivors' benefits. A survivors' allowance to a
child ends when the child attains the age of eighteen (18) years or
marries, whichever occurs first. If a survivors' allowance is divided
between or among more than one (1) child, and payments to one (1) or
more children receiving the survivor's allowance cease because of the
age, marriage, or death of the child, the total annual survivors'
allowance payable under this subsection shall be divided evenly among
or between the surviving children, if any, who remain eligible to
receive the survivors' allowance.
