The rules are changing. Make sure your retirement strategy changes with them.
In this episode, federal retirement specialist Elizabeth Inman explains the important 2026 TSP changes federal and postal employees need to understand.

Whether you are several years from retirement or preparing to leave federal service soon, this conversation will help you make more informed decisions and use your TSP as part of a coordinated retirement strategy. Do not wait until retirement paperwork is already underway to begin asking these questions. Understanding your options now can help you avoid missed opportunities and costly mistakes later.
