Several retirees from all round the country have sent us inquiries about a range of things... health care benefits, investments, address changes, eligibility for anything from CIRG membership to qualifications for retiree mileage events like the 50-year retiree level. That pointed out the need for a directory of sorts steering Corning Incorporated retirees to the proper persons for answers.

CIRG membership and all of the CIRG monthly Coffee Gatherings are open to all Corning Incorporated retirees - union or non-union - spouses and guests. The Coffee Programs have no fees and retirees get a "deal" on the coffee at the Riverfront Café.

We hear about retirees with computers who can’t find our website. That may be because they only use their computers for e-mail and aren't comfortable accessing the Internet.

If you know of any such retirees, you can help them by entering the two fields below. An e-mail message will be sent to them providing CIRG's web site address and instructions in the body of the e-mail.

For inquiries about your retiree benefits, you can call the Corning Benefits Network at 1-800-858-3875 between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday, except holidays. (TTY/TDD users call 1-800-833-8334.) You will need your Personal Identification Number (PIN) when you call. You should have received a letter with your PIN in July 2008 if you have not used your PIN in the past. If you do not remember your PIN, follow the system prompts to obtain a PIN reminder.
