FERS Sick Leave Conversion
The National Defense Authorization Act (HR 2647) was signed by the President
that now allows FERS employees similar sickleave benefits as CSRS employees.
However, the credit is phased in with a 50 percent credit for those who retire
now and full conversion after January 1, 2014. Go to our
Sickleave section for complete details and a
conversion calculator. More to come.

Federal Employee's CSRS & FERS Federal Civil Service Retirement
& Financial Planning Resources
PREPARATION is the key to a successful retirement. This site, based on
my 35+ years of federal government service, extensive
research, and input from our experts in key fields will help
Federal and Postal employees make the
transition from active federal employee to an informed, financially
prepared, and involved retiree. Current retirees will also find the information and answers they need.
I attended several retirement seminars prior to
retiring and returned with more questions than answers. This site fills the gap
and will help you determine if you are
financially,
emotionally and
physically ready for retirement. You will also be able to
estimate your retirement income, understand
benefit options, estimate survivor income with an
easy-to-follow
checklist, complete
retirement forms,
explore financial issues including TSP options, understand basic
estate planning
options, find jobs in retirement if desired, and we direct you to other
resources to finalize your plans.
