TRS Forms

​​​​Certain TRS forms on this website have multiple pages and must be printed on separate pages. Sometimes during processing at TRS, the "front" and "back" pages of these forms may become separated. Please write your name and member ID number (Social Security number) at the top of the "back" page of these forms to ensure proper identification and processing of the form.

When printing TRS forms, certain printers may be unable to print information contained near the margins of the form. Before filling out and mailing in a form printed from this website, please double-check the printed form against the on-line version to ensure that no information has been omitted. If your printer is unable to print the entire form, please contact TRS at 1-800-223-8778 to request that a form be mailed to you.

Where noted, TRS forms are available in PDF fillable format. This means you can fill the information on the form using your keyboard. The forms may be viewed and printed using Acrobat Reader​.
