Sec. 5-191. Credit for service to other states. A member of the state employees
retirement system who has been in the active full-time employment of another state or
states for some past period or periods for which he has received or will receive no
retirement benefit or pension and for which he cannot obtain credit for retirement purposes under any section of this chapter may receive credit for such period or periods,
not to exceed ten years in the aggregate, by making contributions to the State Employees
Retirement Fund, for each year of such prior service, equal to six per cent of his annual
rate of compensation when he first became a full-time employee of this state, provided
the state or states in which such service was rendered make similar provision for former
employees of this state and provided such payment into the state employees retirement
system shall be made within one year of his entry into service in this state or on or before
July 1, 1966, whichever is later. When a person who has gained credit for such prior
service retires, not more than one year of such out-of-state service may be counted for
each two years of state service; provided, if such person has purchased more of such
service than can be counted, refund of the amount paid on the extra years of service
shall be made.
