Learning Objective

  • Discuss how annual leave and unused sick leave affect your computation.
  • Evaluate the steps used to compute your FERS Annuity.
  • Continue building your FERS retirement puzzle.

Course Overview

Computing Your FERS Annuity is a crucial step in planning for your retirement as a federal employee under the Federal Employees Retirement System (FERS).

Proper retirement planning requires that we understand where our money will come from, how much money we’ll receive, and what steps we can take now to maximize those benefits. In this CPE Course, participants will uncover the crucial steps involved in determining creditable service, converting sick leave, and understanding the various multipliers that affect annuity calculations.

One key aspect explored is the conversion of accumulated sick leave into additional service time, a process crucial for maximizing retirement benefits. Participants will navigate through conversion charts, learning how to translate unused sick leave hours into service time, ultimately impacting their annuity calculations. By mastering this aspect, attendees gain valuable insights into optimizing their retirement benefits and securing their financial future.

Through interactive polls and practical examples, attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of their FERS annuity computation, empowering them to make informed decisions about their retirement. 

Major topics covered in this course:

  • FERS computation
  • Know which multiplier is correct for you
  • Spousal benefits
  • Worksheet for benefits

Join us on this enlightening journey as we demystify FERS annuity calculations and help you achieve a financially secure retirement.
