Idaho Federal Workers Face These Issues

Your TSP allocation is way too conservative

Many Idaho federal employees keep their TSP in the G Fund earning minimal returns. With 10-20 years until retirement, this ultra-conservative approach costs you hundreds of thousands in growth.

You don't understand Idaho's retirement tax benefits

Idaho doesn't tax Social Security and offers a $50,000+ deduction for other retirement income. Most federal employees don't know how to maximize these significant tax advantages.

Your pension timing strategy is wrong

Should you retire at your MRA, wait until 62, or work until 65? The timing affects your supplement, pension amount, and health insurance. One wrong move costs thousands annually.

Nobody's coordinating your three income sources

Your FERS pension, Social Security, and TSP need to work together. Poor coordination leads to higher taxes, reduced benefits, and missed opportunities for optimization.
