state legislation that eliminated the source tax for retirees who live in a different state than that which provides their pension income. Because of these laws, the pension income of CSU retirees who live outside California is subject only to the state income tax of their state of residence. Activities The large majority of CSU-ERFSA members receive retirement and health care benefits from the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS). A small number of older retirees receive their retirement benefits from the California State Teachers Retirement System (CalSTRS). CSU-ERFSA provides assistance to its members who experience problems with their pension and health-care benefits. CSU-ERFSA makes available retirement planning advice for active California State University faculty members. In addition, CSU-ERFSA operates a grants program that supports the research, scholarly, and creative activities of its members. Funding for this program is provided from the CSU-ERFA Charitable Foundation, which is a separate organization that holds U.S. Internal Revenue System 501(c)3 status. CSU-ERFSA maintains liaison with the CSU Academic Senate, the California Faculty Association (CFA), the California State Employees Association (CSEA), the California State Coalition of Retired Employees (SCORE), and the Retired Public Employees Association of California (RPEA). CSU-ERFSA publishes a quarterly newsletter, The Reporter, for its members, which also is available to the public through the CSU-ERFSA website.
