Same thing happened to me. Had the same payment for several years, and in the past they never took out any federal withholding. Now for first payment of 2023 they suddenly decide to withhold fed...

I went online yesterday and was able to add my spouse as a beneficiary. I had to do this because they "lost" my wife of 50 years when the new improved system went online. I retired in 2008 and at...
The way it is supposed to work is if, for whatever reason, you don't withdraw all of your RMD by the end of the calendar year, the TSP will automatically make up the difference with an extra "makeup"...

I just had a small but encouraging surprise from TSP. Yesterday (7-16) I got a email notice from TSP acknowledging that they screwed up my monthly installment...
I went to the website today to see if any problems had been fixed since the end of last month. For over a decade I have been keeping a spreadsheet that records each change in my account, including...
My monthly TSP payment was deposited into my checking account today (Jun 16). The amount was not what I expected, so I went to the "NEW & IMPROVED" website and after stumbling around the stupid menu...
I've been TSP participant for 20 years, and I have used the same personal cell phone number on all account forms for 10 years. Tried to go through the "Setup New Login..." process this morning. ...
Just go to the TSP "public" website, and then to the "Current Limits and Rates" page. The "Loan Interest Rate for New Loans" is the same as the "G" Fund interest rate.

Well, the Fed shot their wad, and nothing much changed except a few day traders made some money. Now what?
Loan interest rate for new loans is 2.000%.

Looks like you made the call a little too early this month - you usually wait until the end of the first week? Anyway, rate is now up a teensy bit:
"Loan interest rate for new loans is...
Haven't been by here for a while. Thought I'd pop this old thread up to the top, just in case it is still of interest to the newer members. Happy New Year.
Thanks, Frixxxx, for taking the time to respond to my frivolous question. If I am correct, you simply calculated how long it would take $13.13, compounded annually at 3%, to reach the sum of...
When I retired (5-31-2008), I took the "Series of Monthly Payments" withdrawal option from my TSP account. As I approach 2 years retired, so far it has worked perfectly. My plan was to keep the...
2moryrs: I just noticed your question about Snow-Cap. I attended a pre-retirement seminar given by one of their "instructors" in late 2007, about 6 months before I retired. I thought it was very...
Zebra: I know this thread is getting kinda long, but if you look back to the 2nd page, you'll see this question has already been answered. In my case, the interim payment is about 88% of the amount...
RunningFool: Sorry, but I'm still 2 years away from having to worry about Medicare and the other associated programs, so I can't offer any opinion. Hope someone else will read your question and have...
Me again. I just realized that when I wrote my "Retirement Timeline" (see earlier entry in this thread) I completely left out one of the most important items: my interaction with the TSP! Senility...
GWILLIAMS: Thank you, Sir, for your input. We have more in common than just our retirement date. My federal employment history is also somewhat complex. First I had military time (Air Force),...
XL-entLady: I concur with your BENEFEDS billing experience - it is a little erratic. My first bill was for 3 months premium, my second bill for 2 months, and the third and forth (just got it...
clester: Interim payments. I wasn't eligible for the SS supplement, so don't know about that. As for the percentage of the interim payment - my experience seems to agree well with that of...
roskopfm: You asked about the Flexible Spending Account (FSA). I never had one of these accounts, so I have no direct knowledge on the subject. However, it took me about 3 minutes to find the...

Greetings Handballer! Welcome to the good life. I have a lot of free time on my hands, too. I have thought about posting a short synopsis of my retirement experience, but wasn't sure how...
Hello "Readytoretire", it was nice of you to drop by my old thread, and bring it to the top of the stack. The answer to your question is easy: you cannot be sure of the future performance of any of...
