What Every U.S. Government Employee Needs to Know about Federal Retirement

New website provides helpful information for federal employees on their complex federal retirement benefits.

Anchorage, AK (PRWEB) August 24, 2009 -- A new website, www.Plan-Your-Federal-Retirement.com, offers federal employees important information about their federal retirement benefits. They're announcing an online presence today as a helpful resource for federal employees.

The federal retirement system is one of the most complex benefits programs in the United States. There are so many exceptions, special provisions and exclusions that it can be difficult for federal employees to keep track of their benefits.

"Some federal employees get overwhelmed with all the benefit choices they need to make." said Micah Shilanski, Founder of Plan-Your-Federal-Retirement.com. "Our goal is to help federal employees make sense of it all."

Plan-Your-Federal-Retirement.com provides information on federal retirement benefits for FERS and CSRS, including detailed examples to help federal employees better understand their federal retirement choices.

Micah offers a unique insight on federal retirement benefits: not only does Micah teach classes on CSRS and FERS retirement benefits - but he also manages the personal and retirement finances for federal employees. Micah has worked with government employees from every federal retirement program, including FERS, CSRS, CSRS Offset, Special Provisions ATC, LEO and FF and even the rare FERCCA.

Having helped numerous federal employees retire successfully, Micah offers a unique perspective that can help other federal employees avoid costly mistakes and misunderstandings about their retirement benefits.

The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) estimates that among all full-time permanent employees in the federal workforce as of October 2004, 58 percent of supervisory and 42 percent of non-supervisory workers will be eligible to retire by the end of 2010.

"With so many federal employees becoming eligible for retirement in the coming years, we thought it would be important to share our expertise with federal employees across the nation." said Micah.

Federal employees are encouraged to visit www.Plan-Your-Federal-Retirement.com to find out if they will get all of their federal retirement benefits.
