The webinar

A retirement webinar for TSA Houston employees who can see their date

Your federal retirement has moving parts no private-sector plan has: a FERS annuity built on your high-3 and years of service, a Special Retirement Supplement that bridges you to Social Security, a Thrift Savings Plan with its own withdrawal rules, FEHB and FEGLI decisions that follow you out the door, and a survivor election you make once.

This webinar walks through each one in plain English with real-life examples, tips and strategies, so you leave knowing what your retirement will actually pay, what has to be in place before your last day, and the order to do it in.

Many of you asked for a webinar after the November 4 seminar at the airport, so it runs live on Zoom three times next week. Pick the date that fits your shift and join from home, the break room or your phone.

What you'll walk away with

Six answers most federal employees retire without

  1. Your retirement date

    Minimum retirement age, years of service and the eligibility rules that set the earliest date you can leave TSA with an immediate annuity.

  2. Your FERS annuity

    How your high-3 salary and creditable service turn into a monthly check, and the decisions that change the number.

  3. The Special Retirement Supplement

    Who qualifies, how it bridges you from retirement to Social Security at 62, and the earnings test that can shrink it.

  4. TSP in retirement

    Withdrawal options, installment payments, taxes, and how to keep your balance working after you leave.

  5. FEHB and FEGLI after you retire

    Carrying your health coverage into retirement, the five-year rule, and what Federal Employees Group Life Insurance costs as you age.

  6. Survivor benefits and Social Security timing

    The survivor election you make once, what it costs and protects, and when to start Social Security alongside your FERS income.

Who should attend

TSA employees with retirement in sight

  • Retiring in the next five years

    You can see your date and want to cross it with a plan for each benefit, not a guess.

  • Eligible now and still working

    You could leave today. Find out what waiting another year or two does to your annuity, supplement and TSP.

  • Any TSA position

    Officers, supervisors, managers and support staff. The FERS rules are the same whatever your pay band.

  • Single, married, divorced or widowed

    Survivor and spousal decisions change with your situation. Bring your spouse as your guest.
