FAQ

Common questions

Who is FERSFree built for?

FERSFree is built for federal employees, veterans, reservists, military members, and households with federal or military-connected retirement planning needs.

Does FERSFree replace official benefit estimates?

No. FERSFree is a planning tool meant to help organize assumptions and compare scenarios. Official benefit determinations still come from the relevant government agencies and records.

Can I use it before I am close to retirement?

Yes. Many users start earlier so they can understand timing tradeoffs, savings assumptions, and how different income streams may work together later.

Does FERSFree only look at salary replacement?

No. FERSFree separates cash-flow continuity from earned-income replacement. Cash-flow continuity compares income payable at retirement with the income you currently live on, while earned-income replacement compares retirement income with the work income that stops when you retire.

Is this only for one retirement system?

No. The platform is intended for mixed retirement scenarios, including FERS, TSP, Social Security, military retirement, and other income sources.
