Get the Green Light: Eligibility Check
Curious about when you can start receiving benefits? The FERS Pension provides a reliable monthly income based on your salary and years of service. Unlike the Thrift Savings Plan, FERS ensures a steady stream of income throughout your retirement.
- Immediate: Begins within 30 days of retirement. Eligible at 62 with 5 years, or 60 with 20 years of service.
- Early: Available during involuntary separations or major reorganizations. Requires 25 years of service, or 20 years if over 50.
- Deferred: For those with at least 5 years of service, benefits start at 62. Reduced by 5% per year before 62.
- Disability: For employees with 18 months of service who become disabled. The disability must last over a year and cannot be accommodated.
