Q. If you have a break in your service before you’re vested, would you still fall under your original retirement plan once you complete the five-year vesting time period?
A. If you were a FERS-covered employee, you’d still be under FERS when you were rehired. If you were covered by CSRS, CSRS Interim or CSRS Offset, you’d automatically be converted to FERS and your prior service would become FERS service.

How long were you employed under CSRS? One year? Just 1970? What employment category were you in when you paid Social Security taxes? Was that position full-time or part-time?

CSRS Offset.
Look at any SF-50 you have (Notification of Personnel Action). Block 30 tells you what Retirement System you are in. If it’s CSRS-Offset, the code will be C – FICA and CSRS (Partial).
