SBA Billing

Options:

1. TRS Annuity Draft Form: This option is available to those that retire with a TRS account, and will be receiving TRS annuity. This option will have insurance premiums deducted prior to the annuity payment depositing into your account.
2. ACH Draft Form:  This option is available to everyone with a bank account. Your premium will be deducted from your account on the 5th business day of each month. 
3. Check: The final option for payment is by mailed invoices where payments are due on the 5th of each month via personal check or money order. Keep in mind, if payments are late, your insurance coverage may get canceled. 

Due to mailing and processing time, the first one to two payments will be sent via mailed invoice to the address in Workday. This means the first month’s insurance payment must be sent to the System Insurance Billing Office along with your draft election form.
