FERS Retirement Questions from Winston-Salem Federal Employees

What does a FERS retirement planner in Winston-Salem actually do?

A FERS retirement planner in Winston-Salem helps federal employees understand and maximize their FERS benefits — including the Basic Benefit Plan pension, the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP), Social Security, and FEHB coverage. The Spivak Financial Group serves Winston-Salem area federal employees via phone and Zoom, providing personalized retirement planning without requiring an in-person visit.

How is my FERS pension calculated if I work in Winston-Salem?

Your FERS pension is calculated using the formula: 1% × High-3 Average Salary × Years of Creditable Service. If you retire at age 62 or older with 20+ years of service, the multiplier increases to 1.1%. Your High-3 is the highest average basic pay over any three consecutive years — typically your final three years. A FERS advisor in Winston-Salem can run a precise calculation based on your specific situation.

Can I keep my FEHB health insurance after retiring from my Winston-Salem federal job?

Yes — most FERS retirees can keep their FEHB coverage in retirement, as long as they were enrolled in FEHB for the five years immediately before retirement (or since their first opportunity to enroll). This is one of the most valuable benefits of federal retirement, and a FERS retirement planner in Winston-Salem can help you evaluate your FEHB options and costs in retirement.
