CalPERS has not yet announced a specific 2027 COLA percentage in the information I could verify; the official CalPERS COLA page says members can learn what their COLA will be for the year, and CalPERS staff note that eligible retirees with a 2% COLA provision received 2% this year.

What is known for 2027 is that CalPERS retirees who retired in 2025 will receive their COLA in 2027 , and CalPERS says the exact amount depends on each member’s benefit and COLA provision.

What this means

  • If you’re asking for a single system-wide 2027 COLA number , I couldn’t verify one from current public CalPERS materials.
  • If you’re asking about your personal amount , CalPERS says it appears in myCalPERS under Retirement > Benefit Summary.
  • If you want the most likely range, many CalPERS retirees are on a 2% COLA provision , but that is the provision, not a guaranteed 2027 headline rate for everyone.

Practical next step

Your exact 2027 COLA will depend on your retirement tier, COLA cap, and service history, so the fastest way to confirm it is through your myCalPERS benefit summary.
