  • How is the pension funded? VA employees 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 2020, employees under the age of 50 may contribute up to $19,500, while those over age 50 are eligible to make catch-up contributions that allow them to defer up to $25,500. 
  • 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
