    Thanks Stoplight. Just got my letter from BENEFEDS (dental and vision). They will work with OPM to have payments made once my full retirement kicks in. Meantime I will have to pay monthly premiums. NSSC told me about that so I was expecting it.
    May the force be with us.

    Got my mail yesterday and I had a letter from OPM. I now have my password but I am still waiting for my claim number. Can't do anything until I have both. Maybe it will show up today?

    WOO! HOO! Got my claim number from OPM in todays mail.

    I also got a letter from DOI saying that my retirement deductions withheld by my agency has been certified correct and has been sent to OPM.

    I also got paid today. About 73% of my expected full pay. But then again I am short 3 days. Will have to wait and see what next month looks like.
    When I get a chance to review my claim I will report what that looks like.

    I wonder when my AL lump sum will show up?

    I got on the OPM site today and what they show as net payment vs. my credit union deposit is off by a couple hundred. I guess Monday I play the waiting on hold game to find out what else came out of the pay check.

    Thanks for play by play on the retirement process!

    I thought insurance and federal taxes were deducted from annuity. Looks like u made a good move getting out of stocks before the holiday. I wish washington would go ahead and get the fighting done so I know what is going to be cut from our generous retirement pensions come 2013.

    Your interim pay only takes out federal tax. Once OPM figures out what your real retirement pay is they take out taxes and insurance.

    Well I didn't check the mail until this morning. I got another letter from OPM that showed what was deducted from my first check (it was different from the website). The difference was in the federal tax. My W-4 is claiming married at the single rate no deductions. OPM initial takes out married 3 deductions. So at the moment all is correct.

    Checked the credit union online and I got a nice chunk of money deposited today. I am guessing it is for my annual leave. Checked the OPM website and there is nothing to explain the deposit (go figure). So I guess I will have to wait for a snail mail response. The only problem is the deposit is less that what I calculated it to be. Guess I have to wait.

    They take a big chunk of taxes out of that leave money, you will see when you get the statement in the mail. One good thing is that I got a bunch of it back when I filed my tax return. money1.gif
