(c) In the event proof of age has not been filed with a member's State-administered retirement system before retirement, such proof must be filed before any retirement benefits may be disbursed.

(d) If a member is transferring from one State-administered retirement system, where proof of age was already secured, to another system, no additional proof of age will be required.
