How should I plan for FERS retirement?

Quick answer

FERS retirement planning requires coordinating three income sources: your FERS annuity, Social Security, and TSP (Thrift Savings Plan). Key decisions include when to retire (MRA+30, age 60+20, or age 62+5), whether to take the FERS supplement, and how to set the right TSP withdrawal strategy.
