Lump-sum annual leave/retirement incentive

0

Q. I will be retiring at age 56 and will be eligible for the special retirement supplement upon retirement. Is my lump-sum payment for annual leave used in an earnings test to reduce my SRS? If I am eligible for a VERA incentive payment, is this used in an earnings test to reduce my SRS?

A. Your post-separation payouts should not be included in calculating any offset to the SRS.
