Any member of the Louisiana School Employees' Retirement System may receive credit for service as an employee, as defined in R.S. 11:1002, provided credit granted in another public supported retirement system covering the same time is not in effect and provided he meets the requirements set forth below:
(1) Credit for service cancelled by the withdrawal of accumulated contributions by a member may be restored by the payment to the system of the amount withdrawn plus interest at the board-approved actuarial valuation rate compounded annually from the date withdrawn until paid.
(2) In order to receive credit for “in service”, except the restoration of cancelled credit therefor, for service rendered in any state agency in Louisiana or for service with a parish or city school board, payment shall be made to the retirement system an amount which, on an actuarial basis, totally offsets the increase in accrued liability of the system resulting from the receipt of the credit by the member. The amount payable shall be calculated by use of the actuarial funding method, assumptions, and tables in use by the system at the time of the member's application for credit. The employing agency, in its discretion, may pay not more than fifty percent of this amount. However, if it makes such a payment, it shall then make such payment, in the same percentage, with respect to all employees who make application for this credit.
(3) Payments to be made under the provisions of this Section shall be paid prior to the effective date of retirement.
