A person covered by the Fire Marshals Plan needs three years of service to qualify for retirement and survivor benefits. Employees are immediately eligible for disability benefits. A terminated State Fire Marshal Division employee can apply for a refund of contribution, plus six percent interest if they don't qualify for monthly benefits or if they would prefer to take a refund. Applying for a refund forfeits all rights to monthly benefits, either now or at a future date.
