How These Tools Fit Together
Your postal paycheck, your leave, and your retirement are one connected system. The take-home pay calculator shows what lands in your account today, and the TSP contribution you set there is the same number the TSP dashboard compounds over your career. Your FERS annuity, TSP withdrawals, and Social Security stack into your total retirement income — the three-legged stool every postal retirement seminar talks about. Save your inputs on any calculator and they carry across all of them. Pay scales are verified against union contract PDFs and updated with every COLA and general wage increase; each tool shows its last-updated date.
