OPM digitizes federal retirement booklets as part of longtime modernization effort

The Office of Personnel Management has moved another step closer to its yearslong goal of modernizing the federal retirement process.

Federal annuitants can now access digital versions of four key retirement booklets online, OPM announced this week. Previously, the detailed retirement information was only available as paper copies.

OPM said the digital versions of the retirement booklets are immediately available for download through the retirement services online portal and should reduce delays to federal retirees who need to access information about retirement services.

The four booklets now accessible online are: The original annuitant booklet; the current annuitant booklet; the original survivor booklet and the current survivor booklet.
