CALSTRS ANNUAL RETIREMENT PROGRESS REPORT GOING PAPERLESS H aw k i n g E AC H FA LL , the California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS) provides its members with an annual account statement, called the Retirement Progress Report. The report provides an overview of your CalSTRS benefits and account activity for the previous fiscal year. In 2014, CalSTRS will begin delivering all Retirement Progress Reports exclusively through its secure member website, myCalSTRS, unless you request to continue receiving it by mail. This change is due to recent legislation, AB 989, and will conserve environmental resources while reducing costs. Your report, as well as all past reports as far back as 2002, will be available to view at your convenience on myCalSTRS. If you don't already have a myCalSTRS account, it's easy to register: 1. Go to myCalSTRS.com. 2. Select Register Now and begin the guided process or watch the myCalSTRS Registration Guide presentation for step-by-step instructions.

Log in to myCalSTRS and go to Settings, then Your Profile. Scroll down to the Preferences section and select Edit link next to the Notifications.
