Wrong retirement system?

0

Q. I just received my federal retirement benefits statement from human resources. I noticed that my prior service (federal law enforcement officer April 16, 1984 to Sept. 27, 1986) is listed as CSRS Offset. I took my current job (federal law enforcement officer March 23, 1987-present) and am covered under FERS. According to the Federal Erroneous Retirement Coverage Correction Act, shouldn’t I have been offered CSRS coverage instead of FERS?

A. No.
