VERA and cost-of-living adjustment

Bookmark and Share

Q. I am considering taking the Voluntary Early Retirement Authority that has been offered to Postal Service mail handlers for Sept. 1. I am in FERS. Is there a cost-of-living adjustment? If so, when would I receive the increase and at what percentage?

A. As a rule, FERS retirees don’t receive cost-of-living adjustments until they reach age 62.
