The new retirement system is known as the “Blended Retirement System” or BRS. The “blending” in BRS comes from the blending of two major sources of retirement income: the existing annuity provision for those who retire after 20 or more years of service, PLUS the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP).
Likewise, people ask, how do I access the GRB platform?
In order to access the GRB Platform, you must use a government computer; have a “. mil, . edu or . gov” email address and a Department of Defense Common Access Card.
Likewise, what is the average military retirement pay? For example, an enlisted member who retired after 20 years at the pay level of E-7 could expect to receive about $2,400 a month for retirement, or $28,800 a year. An officer retiring after 20 years at the pay grade of O-5 would receive about $4,700 a month, or $56,400 per year.
In respect to this, can you retire after 15 years of military service?
From time to time, the military offers servicemembers an option for early retirement through the Temporary Early Retirement Authority, or TERA. This program allows members to retire with a minimum of 15 years of active duty service instead of the traditional 20 years of service.
