    Default About to retire from the Air Force...

    I am about to retire from the Air Force and have a few questions concerning the money in my TSP account:

    1) Can I withdraw my money?
    2) If so, how would I do so?
    3) How much of a penalty should I expect to pay?

    I have no plans of re-investing the money, I am going to use it to help pay down some bills.

    Thank you for your time.

    If you withdraw it in a lump sum you will pay income tax plus 10% penalty.
