Notice From the NJ Division of Pensions Dated 3/18/2020
Subject: Temporary Suspension of In-Person Services
As of close of business Tuesday, March 17, the Office of Client Service is suspending all reception desk services and in-person counseling as a precautionary measure to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. The closure will remain in effect through at least Wednesday March 31 and we anticipate these in-person services resuming on April 1. This will provide time to review our current service delivery model and make adjustment, where possible, to provide a safer and healthier environment for members and employees which is consistent with the direction received from our partners at the Department of Health.
Members who have scheduled appointments for interviews will be contacted directly and offered alternative counseling arrangements.
Walk-in services will be unavailable during the closure.
All in-classroom seminars and training sessions have been suspended.
Members have a variety of methods to receive services from the Division by accessing our website www.nj.gov/treasury/pensions, contacting our call center, (609) 292-7524, or sending email to: https://www.nj.gov/treasury/assets/contact/pensions/contact-pensions.shtm
