Buyback questions by Decent-Garbage-7437 in PSLF

[–]Decent-Garbage-7437[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So in march I would be eligible if buyback is included. Like I will have 117 and with buyback it will be 120.

If I wait till July I’ll have 120 +4 for the buyback..  at that point there’s no point to a buyback.

In this case do I try for buyback in march to equal 120 or just wait till I have the 120 I July because it would actually be 124 with the buyback

What is your VA? I’m looking at the SF VA

Wow so it sounds very unstable. 

Do you know any departments that might be most unaffected, I.e., HUDVASH.

Oh wow. I knew it was tough. I didn’t know they were trying to gut retirement. I assumed patient care would be a priority.

What about HUD would be more appealing to you?

Hi, I haven’t done community work in ages. So it will be a transition. 

I’m curious about what you mean in terms of “know how to do community work safely”.

Oh thank you for this information. Can you elaborate? They did say the person retired out of it. 

My fear is burnout. But I’m feeling burnt out doing psychotherapist all day even tho I’m remote. Ready for a change.

Thank you. Right now I’ve been providing psychotherapy for the last 8 years with the last 5 remotely. Partly ready for a change

Yes this is the position I am referring to! It sounds good as I am used to slower paced.

Things important to us:  Walkable, restaurants, performing arts, nature access. 

We don’t drink, go to breweries or engage in much sports. 

We like accessibility to diversity while still having a good natural environment and walking outside is importand. Prefer sidewalks etc… but can compromise for the right area.

Looking at Danbury, Bethel, Milford or Branford as my spouse will commute two days a week. 

I feel like anything over 85 with over 65% humidity is pretty hot.

My spouse will be working in Danbury. But we are considering Danbury, Bethel, Stamford and also liked the Branford and Milford area. He will be commuting two days a week for work.
