FERS Retirement Questions from Erie Federal Employees

What federal agencies employ FERS employees in Erie, Pennsylvania?

Federal employees in Erie work for a wide range of agencies, including the Department of Defense, Veterans Affairs, Social Security Administration, IRS, USPS, Department of Homeland Security, and many others. Regardless of which agency you work for in Erie, if you were hired after January 1, 1984, you are most likely covered under FERS. The Spivak Financial Group serves FERS employees from all federal agencies in Erie and throughout Pennsylvania.

How is FERS different from CSRS for Erie federal employees?

FERS (Federal Employees Retirement System) replaced CSRS (Civil Service Retirement System) for most federal employees hired after January 1, 1984. The key differences: FERS employees are covered by Social Security (CSRS employees generally are not); FERS has a smaller pension formula (1% vs. 2% per year); FERS includes the TSP with agency matching (CSRS employees can contribute to the TSP but receive no agency match). If you're a Erie area federal employee unsure which system you're under, a FERS advisor can help you find out.
