Your financial plan and estate plan should work together.

When beneficiary designations, account ownership, retirement assets, and estate documents are not coordinated, even a carefully prepared plan may not work as intended.

Ryan Polimeni explains why communication between your financial and estate planning professionals matters in his recent Kiplinger article.

Unused sick leave may add creditable service when your federal retirement annuity is calculated, but it cannot be used to make you eligible to retire.

You must first meet the applicable age and service requirements.
Once eligible, your sick leave balance may help increase the annuity calculation.

Waiting to explore a military buyback can become more expensive.

Interest may apply after the applicable grace period, and the process can involve military records, an earnings estimate, and coordination with your agency.
Starting early gives you more time to understand the cost and make an informed decision.

Retirement may still be years away, but estimating your future income now can give you more choices later.

Reviewing your projected pension, Social Security, TSP income, and other savings can reveal potential gaps while there is still time to adjust.

Did you serve in the military before beginning your federal career?

For eligible employees, making a military service deposit may allow qualifying military service to count toward a civilian federal retirement.

Because interest and processing time can affect the decision, it is worth exploring your options well before retirement.

Federal retirement decisions are personal.

Your years of service, retirement date, survivor needs, health coverage, Social Security, and TSP strategy all affect the picture.

A complimentary Federal Benefits Review can help you see how the pieces fit together and identify questions worth addressing, without pressure.

When was the last time you reviewed your federal beneficiary designations?

Life changes - marriage, divorce, births, deaths, and changing family relationships - can leave old forms out of step with your current wishes.

A quick review of your TSP, FEGLI, retirement, and unpaid-compensation designations can help prevent an unintended result.

Make beneficiary forms part of your annual benefits checkup
