Reserve time and federal civilian buyback

0

Q. I have severed in the Air Force Reserves for 10 years. I have about three to four years of active duty time during that time in the reserves due to deployments and working extra days on military orders. If I buy back that time for my federal civilian position, how will that affect my retirement with the reserves should I go back in for my last 10 years in the reserves?

 

A. Making a deposit to get credit for your active duty service would have no affect on your reserve retirement.
