Significant changes are underway in the retirement system for military personnel.

The Fiscal Year 2016 Nation Defense Authorization Act authorized creation of a new retirement system. It is similar to the FERS system for federal employees.

The new military retirement plan has a smaller pension but has added a defined contribution to the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) account. This new system will go into effect on January 1, 2018.
