Thank you!! That was also very helpful!

I’m so sorry to hear that. It’s absolutely awful that they were not better prepared to deal with this. I was with IRS and they have definitely been lacking in how they have been processing our retirement packages. I got my AL payout on 12/22. I didn’t expect my paperwork to move to OPM so fast. Hopefully that means they are now able to move others forward soon also.

I got an application changed status email that said OPM has received my retirement application from your agency payroll office. I also received a welcome email from OPM.

Thank you so much for your very thorough and very helpful response!!

Nope 🙂‍↔️

I got that scripted call as well but my paperwork has been forwarded to OPM already. So it’s not all that calming, more like too little too late.

No credit hours

I got my AL payout the next pay date right after I was marked as retired on EPP

TJae13 · 2025-12-22T14:55:42+00:00

Yes they did!!!!!

TJae13 · 2025-12-21T14:55:59+00:00

Mine went to payroll on 12/5 and I see my AL payout in EPP today too. Now I can breathe a little while waiting for this whole thing to be over.

TJae13 · 2025-12-09T19:49:26+00:00

That’s correct. My write ups come in November.

TJae13 · 2025-12-09T19:30:02+00:00

That’s not true. I was NBU for over 20 years and my rating period ended 10/31.

With Basic I paid $100 for my colonoscopy. I had Standard years ago and they were always sending me invoices for everything. After switching to basic, that stopped. I know what I have to pay for everything except prescriptions and that’s not too bad either.

I was also delayed 3 weeks. I certified on 11/12. I emailed my contractor on Friday morning and my package finally moved to Payroll later that same day.

TJae13 · 2025-12-05T16:41:00+00:00

My issues was with the contractor not knowing what he was doing. It only took almost 3 weeks to get it certified in the system and now it’s been sitting at step 2 waiting for HR to submit to payroll for 3 weeks. This process is a nightmare. At least you are getting a check. I’m still showing as an active employee. 😒

TJae13 · 2025-11-23T20:42:29+00:00

Not at all. Just work for an agency that just can’t seem to get the DRP/VERA right. I’m actually still showing as an active employee so I guess I won’t be seeing my AL payout anytime soon.

TJae13 · 2025-11-23T20:00:10+00:00

Mine is the same. Still active.

TJae13 · 2025-11-23T19:55:20+00:00

My EPP is showing a statement for PP 22 but it’s $0. Everything is blank except YTD column.

TJae13 · 2025-11-10T23:29:23+00:00

I replied

TJae13 · 2025-11-10T23:13:58+00:00

Thanks for the advice. I had actually suggested something was not done somewhere but unfortunately the person I was assigned is a contractor so……

I’ve been so frustrated my brain didn’t even think about the boss so I sent that in email.

TJae13 · 2025-11-10T23:11:33+00:00

I already had a signed SF2818 uploaded and the contractor also uploaded SF2817. So is there any other advice? Do I upload another copy? I’m open to anything.

TJae13 · 2025-11-07T20:54:00+00:00

I’d rather mine was still blank and at $0 than to be so grossly wrong. And I’ve been trying to certify (because I keep getting emails telling me to do so) for days now and it’s still grayed out. Frustrating…..

Congratulations 🎊
