Attention Retirees. Employee ID Numbers (EMPLID).
There will be a change with the new Retired Pay System
coming online at the end of the year. The new system will use employee ID numbers (EMPLID)
instead of social security numbers (SSN). The EMPLID's will be included on the RAS statement
received at the end of the year. Until that time, the SSN is needed in processing work in the
current system. Click here for more Retiree News and Information.
Evening Colors - It's time for a change ... What image pops into your mind? An informative publication
for and about Retirees or an image of sundown, taps - THE END ??? Many retirees
are not entirely happy with the name given to our quartely newsletter,
magazine, periodical, journal, report, publication, newspaper, or ???.

Retiree Council At-Large due to the large number of retirees we have as
members.

However, if you do not have a Local Council nearby, you are welcome to
