How federal retirement planning works in your state
Your FERS or CSRS pension, the TSP and Federal Employees Health Benefits follow the same federal rules in your state as anywhere else. What changes from state to state is how your retirement income is taxed, the cost of living your income has to cover, and whether you plan to stay in your state after you retire.
A free call with a professional who serves your state covers your earliest retirement date, an annuity estimate, how much the TSP needs to provide, and which elections — survivor benefit, FEHB, FEGLI — to settle before you file with OPM.
