12 • THE ARTISAN FALL 2019 GUILD NEWS ATTENTION ROSTER MEMBERS: Did you receive your annual MPI Pension & IAP Statement? MPI mailed out our Pension & IAP Statements for 2018 back in August; we should all have ours by now… These annual statements keep us informed as to how much we have earned and accrued for our eventual retirement. FYI: The Individual Account Plan (IAP) vests after just one (1) Qualified Year, and the Pension vests after five (5) Qualified Years. If you can't locate your state- ment, contact MPI to follow up (855) 275-4674. Read more about Pension & IAP and set up your own profile (to moni- tor your benefits!) at MPI's website: https://mpiphp.org/ These employer-funded ben- efits are a direct result of our Basic Agreement (and AICP, and Low-Budget) negotiations with the employers! Remember: If you move, you must update your mailing address directly with MPI—check their website for details!
