I assume you follow the same procedure and time frame as other state employees relative to processing retirement, Is their anything special that I can do as a federal retiree?
The CSRS and FERS retirement systems require different forms and processes. In addition, the type of retirement action, the benefits associated with the retirement, and the prior service records of the employee retiring may complicate the case and require additional time. Some cases can be reviewed and approved in a day and others may take months to complete and approve. Employees should be familiar with the contents of the retirement application and make sure that all of the required forms are completed and attached to the application package. There is an abundance of information available on federal retirements. Employees should be as informed as they can about the retirement process, the procedures, and the decision making that goes with the retirement. Informed employees have an easier time completing the retirement application.
