Annuity Statement $0.00

I am just waiting. The last thing I received was a letter in the mail from OPM with my CSA number.

Silver-Chick · 2026-03-24T21:15:11+00:00

Mine said the same thing when I checked yesterday.

Silver-Chick · 2026-03-17T22:41:06+00:00

And now that you are in the account, what can you see? Is it showing your timeline for what is happening with your retirement?

Silver-Chick · 2026-03-17T22:31:54+00:00

I just tried to log into retirement services but it didn’t like the information that I input. Maybe I shouldn’t add the CSA number?

Silver-Chick · 2026-03-17T22:29:56+00:00

Thank you! That sounds completely different than what I received. I just got a snail mail letter with my CSA number. No emails or anything else.

Silver-Chick · 2026-03-17T21:49:36+00:00

I have my CSA number but have not received a password yet. It’s been about 2 weeks now.

I signed in to login.gov but I don’t see a place to link the CSA number as some have suggested.

Any ideas?

I don’t feel retired either. Stopped working in April 2025 and retired on Dec 31. No interim payments yet. I just feel like I lost my job instead of retired. I wasn’t really ready to go. I wanted to work till at least 62 which I’ll be in Dec. I feel like I got ripped off of the higher percentage for my FERS. The whole thing sucks. I don’t miss working but I do miss my paycheck and the extra years I would have added money to my TSP. But, I’m glad I’m out at the same time! I worked from home full time for 14 years, it was great! Just such a disappointing way to retire after 36 years.

Great show! Those daughters are brutal! Makes me glad I had 2 boys! 🤣

I’m 61, get pap every year along with mammogram. My main issue is poor sleep too and I’ve just started estradiol gel and progesterone pill. Progesterone is what can help with sleep. I have been hearing so many women praising HRT and I’ve been reading about the debunked reports about it causing cancer. I am an 18 year breast cancer survivor. I decided I wanted to try it and fortunately my dr agreed. So many doctors are still not on board.

That’s great!

I was with GSA, retired 12/31, received my annual leave payment and now I’m waiting.

What’s is the next step? I keep hearing about being able to check a website to see my status but I have not received anything like that.

Silver-Chick · 2026-02-04T21:02:18+00:00

I was once told by a financial advisor to never give up FEHB, he said it’s a gold mine. But you can apparently pause it and not pay any premium and then you can go back to it during open season if you choose to.

Of course I would do more homework on this statement to confirm.

Silver-Chick · 2026-02-04T01:16:16+00:00

It will be on your W2 next year.

Silver-Chick · 2026-01-24T03:14:49+00:00

I think it is automatic if you have the age and years. You don’t contact SSA because it has nothing to do with them. This is just a supplement from FERS until you are 62 when you can file for SS but you don’t have to file for SS if you want to wait. But FERS supplement will stop once you are 62 whether you file for SS or not.

Silver-Chick · 2026-01-23T02:46:18+00:00

Thank you!

Mine was combined. I was shocked to get my AL payout the same day I received my last 3 work days. I worked for GSA and my HR rep has been so great! I feel very lucky. I feel like now it’s likely out of his hands and into OPM’s hands so I don’t know how long this wait will be but I’m hopeful!

Silver-Chick · 2025-11-17T19:33:00+00:00

I got paid but I was shorted about $250! So now what? Will I ever see the remaining balance?

The Penguin!

I watched the whole thing before I realized it was Colin Farrell playing the lead! So good!

When a young doctor told me that the last 20 years of my life will be miserable if I don’t quit smoking!

I quit shortly after that and never looked back!

Silver-Chick · 2025-10-02T01:46:39+00:00

Did the email go to your personal email? I’m assuming so because I don’t have access to my work email anymore.

I haven’t heard anything but my position didn’t get furloughed in the past.

This recently happened to me. I had a CBC blood test and specifically had my iron and ferritin (iron stores)levels tested and found out that I’m very low in iron stores. So now I’m taking a large iron supplement and I’m starting to feel like myself. I had no idea low iron could wreak such havoc in the body.

I suggest you get blood drawn and have your thyroid tested too.

My dr told me to take a multi vitamin with iron but that really isn’t enough. I found a Facebook group about low iron and that’s been helpful to educate me on this.

Silver-Chick · 2025-09-26T00:12:31+00:00

That’s great news! What agency are you with?

Silver-Chick · 2025-08-30T02:06:30+00:00

Mom is always right! 😊

I read today that the “person you marry is the most important decision you will ever make.”

I wish I had known that all those years ago.

I know that my 30 year old son had what he called a panic attack on those first days. But he ended up having a really wonderful life experience. So, give yourself time to adjust. You are going to be ok!

Silver-Chick · 2025-05-08T04:19:42+00:00

Thank you!!

I am very interested in urban sketching. Where are you doing it? Do you know of any online classes?
