*Federal Retirement Plan: *
* VA employees are covered by the Federal Employees Retirement System 
(FERS). FERS is a three-tiered retirement plan composed of 1) Social 
Security benefits; 2) FERS-FRAE basic benefits (*pension*); and 3) 
Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) which is a *401K-type plan
* How is the pension funded?* VA employees hired after January 1, 2014 
automatically contribute 4.4% of their salary each pay period and the 
*VA contributes 8.3% of the employee's salary each pay period* for a 
total annual contribution percentage equal to 12.7% of the employee's 
salary
* Similar to the 401(k) savings plans widely available in the private 
sector, the TSP allows employees to tax defer a portion of their income 
each year, subject to the requirements of the Internal Revenue Service. 
For calendar year 2015, employees under the age of 50 may contribute up 
to *$18,000*, while those over age 50 are eligible to make catch-up 
contributions that allow them to defer up to $24,000
* The Federal Government also provides an *automatic basic contribution 
(1% of salary) and up to 4% of salary in matching contributions*, 
depending on the amount of the employee contribution
* For retired military personnel, these benefits are in addition to full 
monthly retirement pay or pension
* In addition to FERS, VA provides *health care insurance coverage for 
retired personnel
* Disability Retirement*
* Employees are *vested in a federal pension after only 5 years' service *
