About FedVetRetirement

What we do

FedVetRetirement helps US federal employees (FERS and CSRS) and veterans with VA disability benefits plan and optimize their retirement income. We model year-by-year projections of gross income, taxes, healthcare costs, and net take-home — so you know your real retirement paycheck before your last day, not after.

Who it's for

• FERS employees planning their retirement date and survivor benefit elections
• CSRS employees calculating their pension under the 1.5/1.75/2.0% tier formula
• Veterans combining VA disability compensation with federal retirement income
• Federal employees approaching the FERS Special Retirement Supplement window
• Couples modeling survivor income if one spouse is a federal employee or veteran

How the calculations work

Our projections are built on official OPM, SSA, IRS, and VA formulas — the same rules your agency HR office and OPM retirement counselors use. We do not guess or estimate; every number traces back to a published formula or regulation.

Assumptions, data sources, and methodology details are documented in full in our Methodology Center.
