    Great videos Jose, thank you, in the usps check stub, there is a retirement- dollar - amount on the lower right of the stub, for example $5500.00, where does this come in on the computation? Thanks

    • @YourFederalEmployeeBenefits

      Hi Francis, if you see "Retirement" right above it, then it is your total contributions to the FERS system. Every FERS employee pays into the retirement system every pay period. Thanks for the comment.

      Thank you for the comment, Alfredo. Here is one of my articles on leave for retirement: yourfederalemployeebenefits.com/2021/11/24/fers-annual-and-sick-leave-at-retirement/
      I'll certainly consider doing a video on the topic.

    Looks like I'm screwed. I just started with USPS and I am 60 right now. If I work to 65 and only make 30 grand a year it looks like I wont get anything.

    Is the multiplier still 1.1% at full retirement of 67 years old?

    • @YourFederalEmployeeBenefits
      @YourFederalEmployeeBenefits  Před rokem +1

      Yes, that's correct. As long as the Fed is at least 62 with at least 20 yrs of service, the multiplier will be 1.1%. Both the age and service requirements must be met. Here is one of my articles that dives into the details a bit more:

    1700 a month is below poverty. I’m a GS 9 right now and getting my 11 in a couple of months and my 12 a year after that. I got a feeling by the time I retire I will be struggling.

    How do you determine your multiplier

  • @kevo212
    @kevo212 Před rokem +1

    how do you factor in a COLA? thanks

    • @YourFederalEmployeeBenefits
      @YourFederalEmployeeBenefits  Před rokem +1

      Future COLAs are unknown, so I use historical inflation for forecasting. The math is simple multiplication by the percentage increase. For example, if your current pension is $3k and next year's COLA is 5%, your pension will increase to $3k X 1.05 = $3,150. I hope that helps!
