My situation: Active duty, navy, 2.5 years in, option to go traditional or blended

TSP - does DFAS match our contribution?

Does it depend on if we are in the traditional or blended?

Do they only match if we make contributions for every month?

The more information the better. Where can i go for the detailed information on how this all works? Thanks

hmm I'm surprised they have not forced you to do a mandatory class yet on this. Do you have JKO? If not I would suggest you go to JKO and register and take the online class for the new blended retirement system it will tell you everything about it.

DOD civilians get a contribution. Up to 5 percent. I had 20 percent taken out. You must be 59 to take it out.

PO3 Allen Chandler Here is a table from the BRS Guide put out by the DOD Office of Financial Readiness. Google can serve up the full guide for you.

PO3 Allen Chandler Sorry table didn't load well. If you put in 5%, military will match 5%.
