This is indeed good news. Hopefully it will happen sooner rather than later.
Re: 53 Years old Discontinued Service Retiree who needs help........
According to the NARFE Legislative webinar yesterday, it is thought that it will be two years (or more) before the changes can be written into regulations.
NARFE members can view webinars for free. Paying for a webinar at $39.95 gets you the webinar and one year's membership to NARFE. National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association (NARFE)
This is an organization that looks after your earned pay and benefits. Any current employee or retiree can join. It is $40 for current employee; Retirees get a 15% discount when signing up for automatic withdrawal from annuity. No longer have to join a chapter; however, we have a lot of folks out there building relationships with local (State) political people that some times run for National office positions. Lots of good done by the organization to protect our earned benefits from the sharks (Congress men) in Washington, D.C.
Okay, off my soapbox now. I do believe in their mission: Tireless Advocacy, Trusted Advice.
By the way, we are NOT a union.

They will take every second of the 24 months they were given!

It would be a miracle if they do get it done in less than 2 years. Can Congress hold them in contempt if they don't? legislation says do it in 2 years or less.....
