Who Is Eligible? |  |  |
The special retirement supplement (also known as the FERS supplement) is unique to FERS. It substitutes for the Social Security part of an individual's total FERS benefit until age 62, when most people become eligible for Social Security. The purpose of the supplement is to provide a level of income before age 62 similar to what the individual will receive at age 62 as part of a Social Security benefit.
Like Social Security, the supplement is subject to an earnings test, which means the supplement is reduced if the individual's income from earnings or self-employment is higher than an allowable amount.
