Retiree options
Check out the retirement checklist to help you plan and apply for retirement.
I am newly retired.
In most cases, your coverage will automatically continue when you retire. For questions about your coverage, contact an ETF Benefits Specialist at (877) 533-5020 or schedule an appointment. If you ended your employment after 20 years of creditable service but before you’re eligible for full annuity, you can continue your coverage by completing a Continuation-Conversion Notice.
