1. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 8 and NRS 286.300 , a member may withdraw the employee contributions credited to the members individual account if: (a) The member has terminated service for which contribution is required; or (b) The member is employed in a position for which contribution is prohibited. 2. The System shall not refund these contributions until it has received: (a) A properly completed application for refund; (b) A notice of termination from the members public employer or a certification by the public employer that the member is employed in a position for which contribution is prohibited; and (c) Except as otherwise provided in subsection 3, all contributions withheld from such members compensation. 3. If a member submits an application for a refund of the members contributions before all of the members contributions which were withheld have been remitted, the System may refund the portion of the members contributions which it has received. 4. If it is determined, after the System has refunded the contributions of a member, that an additional amount of less than $10 is due to the member, a refund of that amount need not be paid. 5. Refunds, pursuant to this section, must be made by check mailed to the address specified by a member in the members application for refund. 6. The System shall transfer all money retained pursuant to subsection 4 and the amount of any unclaimed refund checks to the Public Employees Retirement Fund or the Police and Firefighters Retirement Fund. 7. All membership rights and active service credit in the System, including service for which the public employer paid the employee contributions, are cancelled upon the withdrawal of contributions from a members account. 8. A member who transfers to a position for which contribution is prohibited must remain in that position for at least 90 days before the member is eligible to receive a refund pursuant to this section.
