  • Interim Payments Get Repaid
    2026/02/10

    If you’re a federal employee nearing retirement, you’ve probably heard about “interim payments” — those partial checks OPM sends while your full pension is being processed. In this episode, we break down exactly how those payments work, when to expect them, and whether you’ll get paid back in full (spoiler: yes, you will). Hear a real workshop question answered with clarity, including what to expect on COLAs and survivor benefit deductions during the wait. Don't let uncertainty cloud your transition — tune in and get the facts.

  • Use it before you loose it
    2026/02/05

    Most federal employees think use-it-or-lose-it hits on September 30 — but that’s a costly myth.

    At a FedPilot workshop, we clarified when the leave year actually ends and what you must do now to protect your hours.

    A few simple planning moves can save hundreds of hours — and real money at retirement.

    This is exactly the kind of clear, practical guidance FedPilot workshops deliver.
