NTEU Membership

What does this mean for you? NTEU works every day to protect and maintain your hard earned benefits.  Recent attacks are now coming from multiple agencies that will have material financial  $$$ impact on you.  The following are items that could impact you and your family.   

Elimination of FERS annuity supplements

What does this mean for you?  Typically if you retire from NCUA before the age of 62 and have obtained your minimum retirement age, you receive a FERS supplement that could be as high as 80% of your social security you can draw at 62.   If this is eliminated – you get nothing!!

Use of high-five rather than high-three pay years to calculate annuity

What does this mean for you?     You could receive around 2.60% less each year on your FERS retirement annuity.  This does not seem like much, but could represent around $30,000+   less in retirement benefits over your life, depending on your income.

Increase in employee retirement contributions

What does this mean for you?   Depending on when you started with NCUA, your salary will be reduced up to 3.60%.    How much will this impact you, take your gross salary every two weeks and reduce it by up to 3.60%.

Reduction or elimination of retirement cost-of-living adjustments.

What does this mean for you?   Nothing, if you plan to die right after you retire.  If plan on living, over the life of your retirement, your FERS annuity could be 20, 30, 40 percent less once you reach 20 years into retirement.

Can you afford not to be a member of NTEU?
