Federal CSRS retirees, will see a 2.1% increase this January;
Quote:
2018 COLA
Social Security Recipients and Federal retirees will receive a 2 percent COLA increase in 2018. CSRS will receive 2.1% and the FERS COLA will be a little lower at 2.0%. This is an estimate and the actualy rate may vary depending on the CPI readings over the next few months. If your gross annual annuity is $35,000 your increase with a 2.1 percent increase will be $735 or $61.25 per month, FERS slightly less. The 2016 increase was 0.0 percent and the 2017 COLA was .3%. View the table located at the bottom of this page for listing of all COLAs from 1999 to the present.
