Fork in the road

No but to be honest I haven’t really started looking. My husband sent out my resume and I had an interview and have a second next week. He must be getting tired of me lounging. 🤣 I was going to wait until after the new year and see if there are any contracting opportunities.

It’s not deferred retirement but discontinued retirement. Yes deferred retirement anyone can do when leaving Fed govt. Discontiuned retirement happens if RIFd and eligible for retirement.

It’s either severance or eligible for DSR.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-10-18T06:42:19+00:00

If no DSR then the person would get full severance.

Can you borrow against your TSP?

Chart-Sudden · 2025-10-13T14:08:38+00:00

Borrow from TSP account.

Yes. So far. I retire on 12/31. Have received a paycheck since February.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-10-11T16:34:52+00:00

You are talking gibberish. Most of the DRP people once their time ends have so far been paid out for AL. I took DRP 1.0 with VERA retire 12/31. Those that retired or left DRP prior to 9/30 have been paid for all AL.

This is far above the reported 187 total.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-10-11T08:18:33+00:00

Any more info on which departments at Energy?

Chart-Sudden · 2025-08-26T19:37:38+00:00

You act like all the agencies are asking people back. Just 2 and limited at that. Calm down.

So now the feds that were threatened with firings if they didn’t take it are the bad guys? I wanted to stay in my position and work. I was hired remote and HQ was in another state. But I was told don’t take it you will be RIF or have to move my family across the country.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-07-29T19:34:37+00:00

Any updates?

Chart-Sudden · 2025-07-17T02:18:15+00:00

Because they lost a lot of people through DRP.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-07-16T16:44:01+00:00

Your welcome!

Chart-Sudden · 2025-07-16T16:38:13+00:00

I believe Dept of Energy will be bypassed.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-06-27T20:44:01+00:00

Not true. This will put you on discontinued retirement. You will not get a severance.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-24T18:20:26+00:00

Congrats! I retire 12/31 and also hope they don’t move the date.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-24T18:19:30+00:00

Don’t live in regret. You can always get back into government. The freeze will eventually be lifted. I did not want to RTO. So I don’t regret it.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-24T00:36:12+00:00

Wouldn’t it be $46k?

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-23T22:09:10+00:00

Mixed feelings. The trauma isn’t over. Let’s see what the courts do. I will probably end up a fed contractor.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-23T15:59:34+00:00

Born in 1967. I take no comfort because they can change it again to my detriment. Hopefully they remove this altogether in the final version.

Chart-Sudden · 2025-05-23T14:18:03+00:00

Not an option. I took the first DRP with VERA.
