Things to consider
Retirement Timing Basics
Understanding when you become eligible to retire and how factors like service credits or unused leave influence your pension calculation can provide helpful context as you review your benefits. In many cases, even small timing differences may affect the amount you receive or the date your benefits begin, making it important to understand the rules that apply to your situation.
Savings Overview
Your Thrift Savings Plan works alongside your pension, and understanding its withdrawal rules and tax treatment can provide helpful context as you review your long-term finances. Learning how these elements interact can give you a clearer view of how different income sources function over time and what general considerations may be relevant to your situation.
Survivor Benefit Options
Each survivor-related election influences the level of coverage that may continue for a spouse or dependent. Understanding how survivor annuities, FEHB eligibility rules, and insurance programs work can provide helpful context as you review your options. Learning about these components early offers a clearer view of the considerations that may apply to your situation.
